Sweet Paprika Chicken

Submitted by mrsrexy

"My family enjoys this recipe made with sweet paprika as it isn't hot and it is really creamy. Recipe is from the 2002 Milk Calendar and I make it often. Spanish paprika is sweet which I buy at the bulk food store. I have used canned chopped tomatoes in place of plum."
