HUNGARIAN CHICKEN (Chicken in Red Sauce)


4 Chicken breast half’s boned with the skin on
2 Large Spanish onions
3 TBS Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 TBS Butter
3 Small cans of tomato puree
Salt and Pepper




Melt the olive oil and butter in a heavy pot. Dice the onions, add to the butter and oil, generously add salt and pepper and sauté until just starting to brown, scraping up the brown bits as you go. Add the boned breasts with the skin, mix with the onions and stir until the chicken looses its raw color. Add the tomato puree and 1 and ½ cans of water. Bring to a boil, lower to a simmer and cook for 1 hour. Peel off the chicken skin and discard, taste for salt and pepper.


Serve over egg noodles.

I think the skin adds more flavor while boiling.
