One pot meals are one of my favorite things. Throw everything in, cook it and you’re ready to eat. Clean up is easy and we almost always end up with leftovers too. I’ve been using my Pampered Chef Covered Baker quite a bit lately. You can use it in the microwave or oven and there are so many recipes to make in it. It comes with a mini cookbook with great ideas but you can make anything you would normally bake or microwave. It’s pretty fantastic. And it’s a lovely cranberry color that looks great on the table too.
We were having one of those evenings where you stand in front of the fridge and wonder what to make for dinner. I started grabbing and came up with this Smoked Paprika Chicken. The addition of the sundried tomatoes and sweet potatoes really did make it a one pot meal. The one important ingredient you can’t skip, is the smoked paprika. While regular paprika is delicious the smoked variety is so much better!
I go through a small jar every year, I love it in chicken dishes and it’s really good in scrambled eggs.
