Chicken Paprikash Recipes

This Hungarian dish is easy and delicious. The original recipe said it is for "4" but I found that depending on the size of your chicken it really makes enough for "6" or 3 days of meals or leftovers!

My all-time FAVORITE comfort food is my mom's chicken paprikash. She makes the chicken by dredging it in flour and frying it, then makes these awesome dumplings (similar to gnocci) and a sour cream gravy to go over everything. I always used to pick that for my birthday dinners! Anyways, here is my "light" version of my favorite comfort meal. It tastes better than it looks, I promise :)

This is an update on my grandmother's recipe. She used a whole cut up chicken, and cooked this for hours. The no bones version prevents nasty bits, and cuts down the fat. To decrease fat further, omit sour cream. Using low or no fat will sour the sauce, but not make it taste like it should.

Serve this saucy dish with egg noodles tossed with a bit of butter, caraway seeds, salt, and pepper.

I love the traditional, sour cream laden, chicken paprikash recipe with the wonderful heavy dumplings, but...the scale doesn't love it. So I altered the recipe to have the taste without the calories.

Brilliant red paprika, the main seasoning in Hungarian cooking, gives this light version of chicken paprikash its color. Vary the heat by using hot, sweet or a combination of paprikas. Serve over whole-wheat egg noodles with a side of steamed broccoli and a cool fruit salad for dessert.

Treat Yourself :)

Just like Grandma used to make! This is great served over mashed potatoes, spaetzle, or broad egg noodles.

Low fat and sodium but rich in taste!

This Chicken Paprikash has been modified from "The Spice House" original recipe to use boneless, skinless chicken, whole wheat pasta and fat free sour cream. Special attention has been given to the list of ingredients to insure the accuracy of the nutritional calculation.

This is my version of a family favorite. Instead of making dumplings, I use Ronzoni Smart Taste pasta. Not quite as good as the original, but close!

Great meal for a cold day...serve with a side salad.

serve w/ spaetzle

This recipe original came from WW, but I added more paprika & more sour cream...server alone or over a small amount of rice

takes a little longer than most chicken dishes but really yummy.

Yummy Hungarian dish. Serve it over noodles.

A family favorite! I use a clay baker, but you could most definitely use a regular baking dish covered with foil. For those who despise onions, my husband does as well. The trick is to cut them finely and after baking, they've basically disintegrated!

This tasty Hungarian dish was great with the smoked Paprika and mixed with no yolk egg noodles. You can also serve it with other pastas or maybe even over rice.

A perfect dish in the crock pot!
