Quick, Easy and DELICIOUS Chicken Paprikash

I'm going to show you why you need to use Hungarian paprika for the best flavour in a Chicken Paprikash, plus I'm making a few changes from an authentic version to make it super speedy and something my kids will devour! Chicken Paprikash is usually made with bone-in pieces of chicken, I’m making this a faster dinner. You can replace with chicken thighs and drumsticks, or over a whole jointed chicken – you’ll just need to simmer for 30 minutes or so longer. MUST use Hungarian sweet or spiced paprika. (affiliate link) It really does make all the difference to use a good quality Hungarian paprika. The smell, taste, and colour are all so much richer. If you can't get hold of Hungarian paprika you can use regular store-bought, but be sure to check the dates and use the freshest kind you can find.
