Start Cooking

Chicken Paprikash

In a large pan, heat three tablespoons oil.
Add onions and garlic and saute until translucent on medium flame, stirring intermittently.
Add your chicken legs skin side down with potatoes, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and lots of paprika.
Raise flame for five to seven minutes to allow chicken skin to crisp but not burn.
Lower flame, add 1/2 cup water to pot, cover, and let simmer on low flame for an hour and a half.

Farfel

In a separate pot, heat three tablespoons of oil.
Add couscous to the pot and allow to brown for two to three minutes or until you see it color.
Add water, salt, white pepper, and garlic powder.
Let it simmer on low flame until water is absorbed. If the farfel is still too hard, you can add more water and let it simmer longer.

Cherry Tomatoes

Lay tomatoes in a single layer on a lined sheet pan.
Coat with olive oil mix so that all tomatoes are coated. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Roast in preheated oven at 375 degrees for 15-18 minutes

Double for pesach?

Thanks for a great recipe. I’ve made this successfully during the year and am hoping to make it for pesach. However, I’d like to double or triple the chicken. How much more of the other ingredients should I use? Thanks!

Surprising and tasty
I tried cooking chicken this way (long time in a pot) for the first time, it was really good.

What pan is best to use for this recipe?

I made this recipe, but the chicken stuck to the bottom of the pan, and the skin slid off. I used an enamel lined cast iron pot. The potatoes did not cook all the way through either. I have a gas stove, but I think the lowest temp was still too high. Maybe next time I will use a heat-diffuser. So, was wondering what kind of pan are you using?

I would use a le creuset type or a pan. I make this in my farberware pots too. Just be sure to spray it well.

Delicious

Hi! Firstly I wanted to let u know that I made this recipe today and it was absolutely delicious!! I never saw my kids eating with such an appetite! Thanks! Was just wondering - is it possible that the amount of salt for the farfel is maybe wrong? Did u maybe mean 2 teaspoons instead of tablespoon?

Green apron!

Love your shows! I always thought hungarian paprikash was with nockedley (egg drops). What you made is chicken and potatoes. Would love to see the real hungarian paprikash chicken. Thank you!
