Sour Cream Range Chicken
olive oil
2 jalapeno peppers, seeds and core removed and finely chopped
2 heaping teaspoons minced garlic
3/4 large sweet onion chopped
a pinch of sugar
2 teaspoons Hungarian sweet paprika
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper (about 3 pinches).
1/4 teaspoon dried marjoram
3/4 cup plus 3 Tablespoons chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon Jane's Crazy salt (or sea salt)
several grinds of cracked black pepper
1/2 cup plus 1 Tablespoon sour cream
Heat 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil in a large cast iron skillet until oil begins to shimmer on medium high heat. Cook chicken pieces, skin side down for 15 minutes, flip, salt with the Jane's Krazy Salt and cracked pepper and cook another 10 minutes until chicken is starting to brown (it will NOT be cooked through). Remove chicken from pan and set aside.. Drain all but a couple teaspoons of drippings. Cook garlic, onion and peppers in the drippings with a pinch of sugar until softened (about 3 minutes).
Add chicken pieces, pour chicken broth around and bring to a boil, covering and cooking on medium low (a gentle simmer) partially covered for 25-35 minutes until chicken is done (use a thermometer - the temperature of chicken should be 160 F. before removing to set aside covered with foil) Remove chicken pieces to a plate and cover, turning heat to low and adding sour cream to the liquid, stirring until blended and warmed, adding heat as necessary but not letting it get to a boil.
Serve chicken over rice with some of the sauce, using a slotted spoon to get some of the pepper and onion bits, and an additional sprinkle of paprika and dried parsley.
