After reading the reviews I made the following changes and it came out really well: cook (saute or grill) chicken, cool and shred with fork / use only ONE medium onion, sliced / add portabella mushrooms, sliced (saute onion first, then add mushrooms and then garlic.) / add 3 cloves garlic, chopped fine / use extra paprika to taste (we prefer Hungarian) / in separate pan over low heat, combine flour with salt, pepper, paprika and slowly add broth to make and thicken sauce / stir in sauce to onion, garlic, mushroom and shredded chicken, back into larger saute pan / reheat / once hot, remove from heat and add sour cream (you do not need a whole canister and don't use flour here... add by the spoonful until it's as creamy as you like it) / return to low heat until warmed up again and serve over egg noodles. / came out really great!03/09/09

I really did not like the flavor combinations in this recipe. I used regular bacon because I dislike turkey bacon and it was still close to inedible. Also, there was wayy too much onion in this, it completely overpowered the whole dish. Sorry, will not be making this again.05/02/08
