Pasta Alfredo Chicken Paprikash

This chicken paprikash recipe is a short-cut from Pasta-Roni. Since I've been sick, any short-cut is so valuable. This one uses my favorite variety, pasta alfredo. I usually just make this one the way it is in the box, but having guests and trying to fix something extra special can be tiring. It's really delicious, believe it or not.
