  • 200 ml cream
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika powder

  2. Cutting the onions (5 minutes): Peel the two large onions and cut them into thin rings.
  3. Searing the chicken (6-8 minutes): Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large pan over medium to high heat. Add the seasoned chicken fillets and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
