Heat a 6 litre heavy stove-top casserole and add the lard or oil and paprika. Saute the paprika for about 1 minute and add the onions. Saute for a few minutes and add the remaining ingredients except for the thickening. Bring to a simmer and cook, covered for about 45 to 60 minutes (all is tender). remove the chicken pieces and set aside. Mix the sour cream and flour well with a wire whisk. Add 1 cup ofthe juices from the pot to the cream and stir well to avoid lumps. Stir this mixture into the pot and stir while it thickens. return the chicken to the pot and restore the heat. Serve with noodles or Hungarian dumplings.
