Mix flour, salt, pepper, and paprika together. Dredge chicken in flour mixture. Heat oil over medium-high heat and cook chicken until brown on both sides. Remove from skillet. Add green pepper, celery, and carrot to pan and cook until softened. Stir in white wine and scrape up browned bits. Return chicken to pan along with broth and marjoram. Bring to a boil and then lower heat. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink. In a skillet melt butter and add onions and mushrooms. Cook until mushrooms lose their water and brown and onions caramelize. Remove the chicken and vegetables to a plate. Skim the fat off and return the juices to the skillet. Add the remaining flour mixture and cook until smooth and thickened. Add lemon juice to pan. Remove from heat and stir in the sour cream. Add chicken, vegetables, and onion and mushrooms to pan. Return to heat and heat through. Makes 6 servings. |
