My friend made this meal for my husband and I after our first child was born. I trimmed it down, and now it's low in fat and carbohydrates. When shopping for chicken tenderloins, remember that some companies label the product chicken tenders. -Beth Ann Stein of Richmond, Indiana

1/2 cup chopped onion
1-1/8 teaspoons paprika, divided
3 teaspoons olive oil, divided
1-1/4 cups water
1/4 cup tomato paste
