Tips:

  • To make the chicken paprikash more flavorful, use bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs or breasts. The bones and skin will add more flavor to the dish.
  • Brown the chicken in a little bit of oil before adding the other ingredients. This will help to develop the chicken's flavor and prevent it from becoming dry.
  • Use a good quality paprika. The paprika is the key ingredient in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a paprika that is deep red in color and has a strong, smoky flavor.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the amount of paprika to your taste. Some people like a lot of paprika, while others prefer a more mild flavor. Add paprika to taste until you reach the desired flavor.
  • Serve the chicken paprikash with egg noodles, mashed potatoes, or rice. These side dishes will help to soak up the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:

Chicken paprikash is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great dish to make ahead of time, as it reheats well. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner recipe, give chicken paprikash a try.
