    5

    Add the diced tomatoes and bell pepper, then pour in a little water. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

    6

    Cover the pot and simmer the chicken over low heat for 35-40 minutes, stirring occasionally.

    7

    When the chicken is tender, stir in the sour cream and cook for another 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

    8

    Serve the Chicken Paprikash hot with freshly made Nokedli (Hungarian dumplings) or crusty bread, and garnish with fresh parsley.
