Stewed Chicken
6 servings
60 minutes
Chicken thighs are tweaked with curry, paprika and mustard, mixed in a successful proportion. An example of how skillfully selected spices can raise even the most simple recipe to a new level. To cook stewed chicken in a frying pan, you will also need sour cream, since a thick sour cream sauce will bind the spices and meat together and smooth out the spiciness. Overall, an extremely economical and solid family recipe, but it has a noticeable whiff of spicy exoticism, capable of turning any weekday dinner into an adventure with a happy ending.
