The recipe on the board calls for a can of paprika. Is this correct? A full can of paprika?

Thanks

I assume it is because tony cacheres is made in opelousas. Ive lived in opelousas all of my life and have never heard of this either.,

Not sure about the name, but I made it the other day and it came out pretty good. The dark meat was the best.

I made this last night for the first time- awsome! I couldn't find a little can of paprika so I just kinda guesstimated. Served it with potato salad and fresh green beans- now that's a Sunday dinner.
