Moms Chicken and Dumplings chicken Paprika

This Was a Staple at Our House When I Was Growing Up. My Mom Made This About Two Times a Month and Often Had to Double the Dumplings! Since My Mom is Not Good at Exact Measurements, I Tried My Best to Recreate This Great One Pot Meal from Her Verbal Instructions. She Calls This Chicken Paprika, but I Am Told It Would Have to Have Sour Cream in It, and It Doesnt, Which is Fine with Me :) ****note 1/15/08: Ive Adjusted the Quantities of Salt and Paprika Because Depending on What Kind of Chicken You Use, Different Amounts of Water Will Be Used, Needing Different Amounts of Spicing. You May Also Increase the Pepper and Garlic, If Desired, but Be Careful as Garlic Should Not Be a Dominant Flavor in This Dish.
