This is always a favorite at my house.  But especially when it is cold.<\/p>\n

AND it is cold.  10 degrees F this morning- with expected snow showers<\/p>\n

-later turning into an icy coating.  Brr!  We need some comfort food-badly!<\/p>\n

\"001\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Start off sauteeing an onion in a tablespoon of oil.<\/p>\n

Most of my recipes for soups and main dishes start out that way.<\/p>\n

Ingredients:<\/p>\n

1 onion, diced<\/p>\n

6 to 8 chicken pieces- small breasts,thighs and drumsticks<\/p>\n

1 to 2 TBS. olive oil<\/p>\n

3 TBS Hungarian paprika- I like the smoked rather than the sweet<\/strong><\/p>\n

1 1\/2 cups chicken broth<\/p>\n

sliced carrots- about 3 large<\/p>\n

2 ribs of celery, sliced small<\/p>\n

1 package frozen peas<\/p>\n

Spaetzle , recipe here.<\/a><\/p>\n

\"003\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Place chicken in pan, and sprinkle with s+p to taste,<\/p>\n

then sprinkle paprika over the pieces.<\/p>\n

Brown one side and then turn over and gently sprinkle<\/p>\n

some more paprika on top.<\/p>\n

\"004\"<\/a>\"005\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The name is Paprikash- so you basically are coating each piece.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Simmer for about 20 minutes, until the chicken loses the pink raw look.<\/p>\n

\"006\"<\/a>\"007\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Add carrots, celery and chicken broth.<\/p>\n

\"009\"<\/a>Cover and cook about 45 minutes.<\/p>\n

\"010\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Turn over pieces once more, add peas and let simmer another<\/p>\n

10 minutes or so- don\u2019t overcook- you want the peas a bright green.<\/p>\n

\"012\"<\/a>Make spaetzle<\/a> –<\/p>\n

\"013\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And enjoy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
