How to Make Polish Style Royal Chicken

  1. Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add 1.5 lbs of boneless, skinless chicken thighs (cut into 1-inch pieces) and cook, turning occasionally, until golden brown on all sides (about 8-10 minutes).
  3. Add 1 large thinly sliced onion and 8 oz sliced cremini mushrooms to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are softened and translucent (about 5-7 minutes).
  4. Pour in 1 cup of chicken broth. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  5. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and 1 tablespoon of sweet paprika.
  7. Gradually whisk the flour mixture into the skillet with the chicken and sauce. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
  8. Stir in 1 cup of sour cream until well combined. Do not boil after adding sour cream.
  9. Serve hot and enjoy!
