Hungarian Chicken

You'll want to try this chicken. It's super easy to make, even though it does take about an hour to finish cooking. The sauce, however. Let me tell you. This was the best thing about this meal! It was flavorful and added so much to the chicken! I didn't serve with buttered noodles as part of the recipe (I'm trying to not eat as much carbs), but I can only imagine it's delicious!
