I made this as written and it was delicious! I served over extra wide egg noodles. My three year old daughter, one year old son, and husband all wanted seconds!

This recipe is Delicious! Our family prefers it with Hungarian paprika and green bell peppers like grandma did. It is still great without the tomatoes (as she did) and you can also leave the chicken on the bone (this gives you a lot more juice!)and serve in a big covered bowl.If you don't have a slow cooker, just place oil or butter & onions in a large pot. Cook onions a bit until clear, add a generous amount of Paprika &1 can chicken broth or water.Salt the chicken pieces (bone-in is more flavorful)and sprinkle additional Hungarian Paprika on each chicken piece and add to pot. No browning needed! Add sliced green bell peppers. Simmer slowly over stovetop for about 1 - 1.5 hrs.until chicken starts to pull away from the bone. Salt/pepper to taste. Then stir in the sour cream just before serving . It's great over spaetzel, shell noodles or especially home made flour/egg dumplings! Serve with sour cream cucumber salad and sour dough bread. Yum-Yum! Pure comfort food!
