I love Chef John and his recipes, and I also love a good chicken recipe, so when I saw this dish I had to try it. And I’m glad that I did. It’s soooo flavorful with the two types of Hungarian Paprika, Garlic, and Onions. Then lay in the sour cream mixed with heavy cream in to the mix and you have a serious Wow factor going on.

But you should warn those you serve that this recipe has peanut butter for those you may have peanut allergies.
