Yield: 4 Servings

Ingredients

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon paprika
1/8 teaspoon pepper
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (6 ounces each)
2 tablespoons canola oil
3 tablespoons leek soup mix
1 cup water
1/2 cup sour cream
1-1/2 teaspoons minced chives

Directions

In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the flour, paprika and pepper. Add chicken, two pieces at a time, and shake to coat. In a large skillet, cook chicken in oil over medium heat for 6-7 minutes on each side or until a meat thermometer reads 170°.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, bring soup mix and water to a boil, stirring frequently. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat; stir in sour cream and chives. Serve with chicken. Yield: 4 servings.
