Although Cooking With Kids has featured a Chicken Paprikash recipe in the past, it was not, I sheepishly admit, the genuine article. This version is the dish that made a weekly appearance at our house and, according to my mother, is the real thing.

1 tbsp
vegetable oil

Instructions
- In a large skillet (that has a lid) or a Dutch oven, heat the oil. Add the onion and green pepper and stir, over medium heat, for about 10 minutes or until soft.
- Add the chicken pieces, paprika, salt and pepper, and toss everything around until mixed. Add the water, cover the pan and lower the heat to a simmer. Cook, stirring once in a while, for 30 to 35 minutes, until the chicken is tender.
