Step One

• Combine flour, 2 tablespoons of paprika, salt, and pepper in a shallow, small bowl.
• Dredge the chicken pieces through the flour mixture.
• Set the flour mixture aside for later use.

Step Two

• In a large Dutch Oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Place chicken in the pan and brown chicken on both sides (this should take about 2 minutes per side).
• Add 2 cups of chicken broth to the pot and bring to a boil. After it starts to boil, reduce to lower heat, cover, and let the chicken simmer for 35-40 minutes or until chicken is done.

Step Three

• While the chicken is cooking, it's time to make the paprikash sauce. In a mixing bowl, combine the leftover flour mixture, 1 cup of chicken broth, and the sour cream. Allow to sit out and come to room temperature while the chicken cooks, to help prevent the sour cream from curdling when it's added to the hot chicken broth.

Step Four

• Once the chicken is done cooking, turn the stove off and use a slotted spoon to remove it to a cutting board. Use two forks to shred the chicken.
• Add the sour cream paprikash mixture to the chicken stock in the Dutch oven and stir until completely combined.
• Return chicken to the pan and add the spaetzle (Hungarian dumplings).
• Turn the burner back on to medium heat and cook until everything is heated throughout.
