Beef Paprika Recipe

"My husband, Don, and I loved this savory dish when we first sampled it at a party," notes Nancy Nielsen of Orange, Connecticut. "Of course, I had to have the recipe, which I have downsized to serve just the two of us. This hearty entree featuring tender beef is one of our favorites."

This recipe is SO good! I used penne noodles, but next time, I will use egg noodles. I will be making this again soon.

Ever since this was originally published in 2002, it became my favorite way to fix stew meat. So glad to see it online too!

Thickness of Gravy/Sauce and even flow of taste of the Spices, makes this Recipe a Five Star Rating! Paul Morris-Belcourt, North Dakota!

The KEY ingredient is Thickness of the Gravy/Sauce! Too thin and it is just like beef stew! Thickness of Gravy and even flow of taste of the Spices makes this dish a Five Star Rating. Pmorris-Belcourt, N.D.
