this recipe go by several different names. “American Chop Suey” is one of them, so is “Mac and Beef.” However, no matter what it’s called in your region, it’s one of the most tasty single-skillet meals you will ever make and it’s stupidly easy too. Whatsmore it pleases adults as well as the kiddos. What’s not to love? There’s two ingredients that are responsible for the flavor in this meal. One is the tomatoes and the other is the paprika.
This recipe doesn’t use the amount of paprika that an authentic Hungarian Goulash uses. A really authentic goulash will use either smoked or hot paprika. This recipe calls for the generic variety found in most markets and even dollar stores.
