Table of Contents
Ingredients:
- 4 chicken legs
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Some vegetable oil
- ~30g butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 large red onion, chopped
- 3-4 cloves of garlic, minced
- 3 teaspoons paprika
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 3-4 ripe tomatoes, chopped
- 200-300 ml broth (chicken or vegetable)
- 3-4 tablespoons sour cream
Instructions:
- Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken legs with salt and black pepper.
- Fry the Chicken: Heat a combination of vegetable oil, butter, and olive oil in a large frying pan over medium/high heat. Fry the chicken legs for about 5 minutes on each side until they are golden brown. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
- Make the Gravy: In the same pan, sauté the chopped red onion and minced garlic until softened. Add the paprika and flour, stirring well to combine. Add the chopped ripe tomatoes and cook for a few minutes until they start to break down. Pour in the broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt, pepper, or other favorite seasonings as needed.
- Cook the Chicken in the Gravy: Return the chicken legs to the pan, nestling them into the sauce. Cover and simmer over low heat for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
- Finish the Dish: Stir in the sour cream and bring the gravy to a boil. Cook for about 2 more minutes.
- Serve: Serve the chicken legs with the rich and flavorful gravy.
