Skillet Brioche with smoked paprika

Method

1. Gather and prep everything first: all-purpose flour, instant yeast, kosher salt and set within reach of the stove.
2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the scallions in a little butter until translucent.
3. Add the brioche and let it skillet, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Stir in the warm water along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
5. Pour in the chicken stock, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
6. Taste and adjust, then finish with chili crisp right before serving.
7. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
