Ingredients

    1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, trimmed, cut into 2-inch pieces
    1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
    1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    2 large green bell peppers, thinly sliced
    1 large onion, halved and thinly sliced
    2 teaspoons hot or sweet paprika
    1/2 cup dry white wine
    1 1/2 cups canned crushed tomatoes
    1/2 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
    1 tablespoon lemon juice
    1/4 cup fat-free sour cream
    2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Directions

1. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook, turning occasionally, until browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

2. Add bell peppers and onion to the pan and cook, covered, over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes.

3. Add paprika and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

4. Add wine; increase heat to medium-high and cook, stirring, until mostly evaporated, about 1 1/2 minutes.

5. Add tomatoes, broth and lemon juice; bring to a boil.

6. Return the chicken and any accumulated juices to the pan; reduce heat to a lively simmer. Spoon some sauce over the chicken and cook, turning occasionally, until the sauce is reduced and the chicken is cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes.

3. Remove from the heat; stir in sour cream. Sprinkle with parsley.
