A couple of years ago, my sister Jessica sent me this recipe. I just recently tried it out and it was fantabulous. It was full of flavor, and creamy and warm… perfect for pretending it’s already Autumn in Florida.
So here’s the “recipe” (no measurements) for yummy paprikash-ish chicken and rice.
First, sautee a chopped onion, garlic, carrots, and red peppers. Brown some chicken in the saucepan with the veggies. Leave it in the pot. When the chicken is browned, but not completely cooked, add a can of chicken broth (for 3-ish breasts). Salt and pepper are always good too.
Boil for a while, until reduced. Then stir in sour cream and paprika. Heat through.
Stir it up, and serve over rice.
It was delicious, and the leftovers were great too. We cut up the leftover chicken into little pieces, and put the chicken-and-rice mix inside of our leftover crepes. It was really really tasty.

Good plan, Sarah! And you can always add extras. Mmm…
I love chicken paprika, but the recipe I have doesn’t use as many veggies. Since I’m always trying to eat more of them, I will have to give yours a try!
I was in need of a recipe, and I was looking through my livejournal for a recipe my aunt had posted awhile back and I came across yours and said “why not!?”
Usually I don’t tend to be so quick to try new things out (due to the allergy)

Kristin, that was FAST! Same day as the post? I’m glad you liked it! And you’re welcome.
I tried this meal, it was so good. I had to leave out the onion as I’m allergic to them, but even without it there was still great flavor. Anyways the point was: Thank you for posting!
