Pour in the tomato sauce, a little water, and the sweet paprika (and a pinch of cumin, if you want.) Cover with a lid, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 15 minutes. When the carrot is soft (use a fork to test), remove from the heat serve on a plate. If the carrot is still hard, cook a little longer.
Tips & Tricks
If you have cumin powder, add a pinch to the chicken when instructed in the recipe for a delicious flavor.
You can make this dish into a more substantial meal by adding some potato. Just peel, cut into chunks, and add with the carrots. Leave longer in the skillet for the potato to cook. When soft (use a fork to test) remove the skillet from the heat.
Tomato sauce contains salt, so there’s no need to add any more, unless you feel it's needed.
