Heat butter in pan, lightly brown sliced onion in it, then put in
chicken cut in handy pieces, strew paprika over and a little salt.
Cover tightly and simmer till tender, adding a spoon of water if
necessary. This takes 20 to 25 minutes. Then dust in some flour and
stir in some sour cream to make a thin sauce. When this boils up

Tender Veal or Lamb Paprika Devils are prepared in exactly the
same way, using about i^ pounds of either meat, which will equal
the amount of flesh on a Spring chicken, minus bones and unused

with chopped lamb's liver, prepared in advance and boiled at the
last minute, are worth while doing.
