Croatian Chicken “Paprikas” - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 kg chicken piece (breasts, back... with bones and skin)
    2 large onions, finely minced
    10 g lard (preferably, but oil can do)
    3 teaspoons ground paprika (red,dry)
    1/4 teaspoon chili
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon pepper
    1/2 teaspoon caraway seed
    200 ml white wine
    50 g sour cream
    300 ml water
Preparation
    Melt the lard in a pot.
    Add 2 large onions finely minced and saute it until the onion is soft and transparent.
    Chop the chicken into small pieces (mouthfull). Than, add chicken pieces and saute it until the meat is white.
    Add wine and saute it for 5 more minutes.
    Than add 3 teaspoons of paprika (chili to taste), salt pepper and caraway seeds.
    Add water to cover the chicken.
    Saute for 50 minutes or until chicken is soft.
    At the end add 2-3 teaspoons of sour cream and cook for 2-5 more minutes.
    Serve with noodles or mashed potatoes, and inevitably white wine (you've used in the paprikas).
    As a salad with it I would recommend red beet.
