    Took the advice of adding the hot paprika and the sweet paprika. Maybe next time a little less hot. Currently watching my son sweat and gasp and say I don’t know what to do. He’s gulping milk and now starting to tear up. But he loves it.

    This is a favorite. I use boneless breasts and have found that this recipe also works well with pork chops. I've often forgotten to take the chicken out of the freezer. Instant Pot® to the rescue! For a slightly different version braised in the oven,see Hungarian Chicken Paprikash in Milk Street 365, page 334.

    delicious! used some biber salsaci (Turkish hot pepper paste) along with the tomato paste, and a fair amount of spicy paprika. Served with a Hungarian cabbage and noodles dish.

    Delicious and very easy. Scaled down to a half batch. Based on other reviews, I used half hot paprika and half smoked. Also used dried dill and, against the advice in the notes, light sour cream, and it was plenty rich and creamy for us. Would make again.

    agree with rhb. a teeny bit of spice would be good.

  • kshell on October 15, 2023

    Used about 1.5 lb. boneless, skinless chicken thighs, and a generous handful of cherry tomatoes instead of tomato paste. Delicious, and I would make again.

    Used boneless chicken thighs. Did the fast method in my instant pot. Loved the sauce but had no dill. Think dill would add a lot to it.

    Very nice and very easy. Next time we'll add some cayenne or half-sharp paprika.
