Notes

  • I used skinless chicken drumsticks but you can use boneless chicken cuts too or other in-bone chicken cuts with or without skin. Use sweet paprika and not the hot paprika variety. IT can be smoked paprika too. You can use concentrated stock mixed with water (50:50) or Maggi cubes mixed in warm water or packet broth. Sour Cream is usually used in this recipe to add tanginess to the dish but you can also use thick cream or Crème fraîche.
