Hungarian Chicken Paprikash - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 large yellow onion, chopped
    1 -2 tablespoon olive oil
    4 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts or 4 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs
    2 tablespoons paprika
    1/2 teaspoon white pepper
    1 1/2 cups hot water (NOT boiling)
    2 tablespoons cornstarch
    2 tablespoons cold water
    1 (8 ounce) container low-fat sour cream (Cabot Light preferred)
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F.
    In a large skillet, saute onion in the oil until tender.
    Sprinkle chicken with paprika and white pepper and place in an ungreased roasting pan.
    Spoon sauteed onions over the chicken parts; add hot water to roasting pan.
    Cover and bake in preheated oven for 11/2 hours or until juices run clear.
    Remove chicken from oven, reserve pan juices for the sauce and keep the chicken warm while you make the sauce.
    To make the sauce: In a small saucepan, combine cornstarch and cold water until smooth.
    Whisk in the pan juices from the chicken; bring to barely a boil over medium heat.
    Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring until thickened.
    Remove from the heat and stir in the sour cream; serve hot over the chicken which I serve over hot cooked noodles (whole wheat preferred) or hot cooked brown rice.
