After a busy day, everyone craves a dinner that’s both quick and delicious—and Mary Berry delivers just that with her creamy paprika chicken. This dish has earned rave reviews on Good Food for its comforting flavors and simplicity.
Described as “a classic quick dinner that will please all comers,” this recipe pairs beautifully with plain boiled rice or creamy mashed potatoes to amplify the comfort factor.
To prepare, start by mixing the marinade ingredients on a large plate. Lightly coat each chicken fillet with this blend and season generously, as recommended by the Express. For best results, let the chicken marinate for about 10 minutes if time allows.

Next, heat a large non-stick frying pan with a drizzle of oil and cook the chicken breasts for just under two minutes on each side, until cooked through. Remove any excess oil with kitchen roll before adding a creamy paprika sauce.
To make the sauce, combine cream with the leftover paprika marinade from the plate, then pour it gently around the sizzling chicken in the pan. Allow the sauce to bubble and thicken slightly, enriching the dish with smooth, indulgent flavors.
Serve this comforting meal alongside tender spinach and fluffy boiled rice. For variety, substitute the rice with mashed potatoes or even toss the chicken and sauce through pasta for a delightful twist.
