Inspired by the long-simmering Hungarian stew, this creamy goulash (which is at its finest with real Hungarian paprika) is quick, easy and full of robust flavour. Serve it over egg noodles or spaetzle.

1/2 tsp (2 mL) caraway seeds
1 lb (500 g) boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 tbsp (25 mL) vegetable oil
3 cups (750 mL) sliced mushrooms (8 oz/250 g)
1 onion, chopped
1 sweet green pepper, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp (15 mL) paprika
1/2 tsp (2 mL) each salt, pepper and dried thyme
3 tbsp (50 mL) all-purpose flour
1-1/3 cups (325 mL) chicken stock
1/4 cup (50 mL) tomato paste
1/4 cup (50 mL) chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup (50 mL) light sour cream
Preparation:
Using mortar and pestle or side of chef's knife, crush caraway seeds; set aside.
Cut chicken into 3/4-inch (2 cm) chunks. In Dutch oven, heat half of the oil over medium-high heat; fry chicken, in batches, until browned outside and no longer pink inside, about 4 minutes. Remove to bowl.
Add remaining oil to pan. Add mushrooms, onion, green pepper, garlic, paprika, salt, pepper, thyme and caraway seeds; cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened, about 5 minutes. Add flour; cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Stir in stock and tomato paste; cook, stirring often, until thickened enough to coat back of spoon, about 5 minutes.
Return chicken and any accumulated juices to pan. Add parsley and sour cream; stir until heated through.
