Ingredients

4 chicken breasts

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1/2 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper, to taste

1/4 cup vegetable oil

1 onion

2 small garlic cloves

1 cup sour cream

1/2 cup chicken stock

1/4 chopped green onions, including green part

Directions

  1. Clean chicken breasts and dry well. In a shallow baking dish, combine the flour, cayenne pepper, paprika, salt, and pepper. Dredge chicken breasts in flour mixture to coat. Shake off excess. In a large skillet heat 1/4-inch vegetable oil over medium heat. Add chicken and brown well, about 2 minutes on each side. Remove from pan and set aside. Pour excess oil from pan, leaving a thin layer. Add onions and garlic, saute, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 3 to 5 minutes. In a bowl combine sour cream, chicken stock and green onions and mix well. Transfer chicken back to skillet, pour sour cream mixture over it. Bring to a simmer and cook, covered, until done, about 10 minutes.;

Badly written recipe, it doesn't say what size the chicken breast needed to be.  There is no way a full skinless boneless chicken breast will cook fully being brown for 2 min on each side. Same with the onion, whole, diced, sliced?  The time it took the chicken to cook was double what the recipe said.  Also I added flour to the sour cream to thicken it a little.
