For a richer flavor, use beef broth instead of water. If you don't have smoked paprika, regular paprika will work, but the smoky flavor is highly recommended. Adjust the cayenne pepper and hot sauce to your preferred spice level. Serve with a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt for extra creaminess.
