Mamma's Chicken Paprika

Chicken joints (or thigh bits)
1/2 cup flour
Salt and pepper

60gm butter
1 chopped onion
1 chopped green capsicum
2 cloves crushed garlic
1 tbsp paprika
1 cup water/stock
3/4 chopped, peeled tomatoes
1/2 cup sour cream


Season chicken with flour and S&P (not really necessary, mum doesn't usually). Brown chicken and set aside. Fry up onions and garlic. Add paprika and fry a little before adding stock, tomatoes and chicken. Simmer 1 hour (or until chicken is cooked). Take pan off heat and add sour cream - careful the mixture isn't bubbling or the sour cream will curdle. Simmer only a minute or two.
