Ingredients
- 3 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts cubed
- 1 small yellow onion thinly sliced
- 2-3 garlic cloves minced
- 1 cup diced red bell pepper
- 1.5 tsp. sea salt
- black pepper to taste
- 1 bay leaf
- 2 tbsp. sweet Hungarian paprika
- 1 tbsp. hot Hungarian paprika replace with sweet to make it mild
- 1 tbsp. tomato paste
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- 14.5 oz. can diced tomatoes undrained
- 1 cup full-fat sour cream
Instructions
- Place the cubed chicken in a slow cooker and top with onion, garlic, red bell pepper, salt & pepper, and a bay leaf.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the tomato paste, sweet paprika, hot paprika, and chicken broth. Stir until well combined, then drop spoonfuls of the paste over the chicken and veggies.
- Pour the can of diced tomatoes and their juices over everything. Do not add sour cream yet. Cook on low for 4-6 hours or until the onions have softened and the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165° with a meat thermometer.
- Stir in the sour cream and continue to cook for 15-20 more minutes or until heated through. Serve the chicken, veggies, and the delicious sauce over egg noodles, spaetzle, rice, or your favorite side. Enjoy!
Notes
- If you don't like spicy food, feel free to replace the hot paprika with another tablespoon of sweet paprika.
- Full-fat sour cream is best for cooking as it blends better. I use low-fat for raw preparations like dips and topping enchiladas.
- If your slow cooker tends to leave onions crunchy, you may want to pop them into the microwave for a minute or so before adding them to the slow cooker.
