Chicken paprikash is a classic Hungarian dish. Traditionally the chicken is cooked in a delicious sauce with a variety of Hungarian spices such as sweet paprika, thyme, marjoram, and sometimes cayenne pepper. When chicken paprikash is served, it is topped with sour cream adding a rich and creamy flavour.

Authentic chicken paprikash is always served over pasta or rice. In this recipe, I cooked the pasta in the sauce. The penne soaks up the flavourful sauce and everything tastes incredibly tasty. Although this recipe started as a Hungarian dish, it ended up having an Italian twist.

This one-pot wonder takes only 25 minutes to cook, making this an easy gluten-free weeknight meal that even the pickiest eater will love. What I love about this recipe, is the easy cleanup, only one pot 🙂
