Ingredients
 

  • 8 large chicken drumsticks
  • 1 tablespoon or Vegeta

  • 2 tablespoons of sweet paprika
  • 1 Brown Onion sliced
  • 250g stick of butter
  • 100ml of sour cream
  • 3 cups of water
  • 500g of spiral pasta or any you prefer
  • Dash of pepper

Instructions
 

  • Combine the flour, vegeta, 1 tablespoon of paprika in a large bowl season with pepper.

  • In slower cooker add rest of butter and saute onion until transparent. And butter is melted.
  • Add tomato paste, half a cup of the flour mix, 1 tablespoon of paprika a dash of pepper and stir until a nice paste .
  • Add chicken to slow cooker and coat in paste as well as possible. ( don't worry too much as water will be added)
  • Make sure all chicken is compacted together nicely as when adding water you just want the water sitting just below top of chicken. (too much water makes it to runny)

  • After this time remove chicken and either shred from bone or breast. Leave aside.
  • Meanwhile boil pasta
  • Add sour cream to slow cooker and stir well.

    This recipe is so delicious! I used chicken breast instead of drumsticks and cooked on high for 2hrs then turned down low for 1 hr. I also added 3TBS of crushed garlic to the onion and chicken breast and sauteed all together before adding to sc. Fantastic recipe that we will make regularly here ? Thank you so much for sharing your family recipe with us Sheri, we loved it ?

    Made this tonight for dinner. My partner and I loved it. We used chicken breast and added minced garlic but it was so good! Will definitely be a regular meal in our house now ?
