food the kids like

it's always a struggle to find something the kids will eat willingly. most nights, it's a battle of wills, to see who breaks first ... most nights, the kids win and i end up eating their leftovers (which is why i don't even make a plate for myself anymore; i just wait to see what's left of the kids' plates).

so when i find something that they eat and finish, i know it's a keeper. here's my recipe for chicken paprika, a staple in our house growing up. i've modified it a bit from how i remember my mom cooking it. serve it over warm rice ... mmm.

Chicken Paprika
4-5 chicken thighs, cut up
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 small onion, chopped
1 small bell pepper, chopped
1/2 c soy sauce
1/4 c water
2-3 Tbsp paprika
pepper

Saute onions in oil until translucent. Add garlic and stir until fragrant. Add chicken; brown on both sides. Once browned, add soy sauce and water. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes, mixing occasionally. Add paprika and pepper to taste, incorporate into sauce. Serve immediately.
