When Harry Met Sally

Though everyone may remember the famous orgasmic scene from When Harry Met Sally, later in the movie Harry makes a reference to Paprikash. When comparing what brings about that reaction (a sandwich from Katz's, which I make no pretense to be able to beat such a long standing tradition of amazing deli food), this is the at-home-attainable recipe that will do it.

Recipe of the Day: Chicken Paprika
½ c flour
2 tsp sweet paprika
1 tsp onion powder
S&P
2 bone-in, skin on chicken breasts
1 box chicken stock
2 large yellow onions, quartered
¾ c sour cream

Season flour with paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Coat chicken breasts with seasoned flour.

Set a wire rack inside a large baking pan, and place chicken breasts on top of wire rack. Scatter quartered onions around the bottom of the pan. Pour chicken stock into bottom of pan. Bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes until chicken is cooked completely and juices run clear. Remove chicken from pan and allow to cool.


Remove skin from chicken and shred meat off the bone. Return shredded meat to the pan with the stock and onions also from the original pan. Season again with paprika, salt, and pepper as needed.

Add sour cream and stir to coat chicken. Serve hot.
