Pauvre Moi Steak

Steak for one pan-fried, then bathed in a spicy sauce! I threw this together because I didn't really have much in the kitchen, being a poor student abroad. I don't even like meat, but this was quite tasty. I like to make it really spicy--you have to use good quality HOT paprika. This is great with mashed potatoes, a pile of veggies, and bread to sop up all that sauce.
