Hilde Jacobs Sauerkraut Chicken
1/3 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 2-1/2 to 3 pound fryer, cut into 8 pieces
4 to 6 tablespoons butter
2 cups sauerkraut
1 medium potato, peeled and grated
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a paper or plastic bag, combine the flour, salt and paprika. Add the chicken pieces, a few at a time; shake to coat completely. Melt the butter in a skillet and brown the coated chicken pieces. Combine the remaining ingredients and spread in a 12 by 7 1/2 inch baking dish. Arrange the browned chicken pieces on top. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, or until the chicken is very tender. Baste with juices from the baking dish and serve.
Yields 4 servings.
