This is a quick one-pot recipe that I nearly always have the ingredients for already. My younger son hoovers this up in a quite alarming manner!

I use a large heavy non-stick pot with a lid for this.

 

1 Chicken Breast per person

1 whole Chorizo ring, or a good chunk bought from the deli (if you can only get sliced I would bung in at least 2 packets)

1 large red onion

Bay leaf

Half can chopped tomatoes

1 can Chick Peas

Smoked paprika

Seasoning

 

#Chop your onion and soften in oil or butter, meanwhile cut your Chorizo up into cubes [note: remove skin] or quarter if sliced. Add to onion and stir occasionally.

#Cube chicken and add to pan, stir around until the chicken browns.

#Add bay leaf and a heaped tsp smoked paprika.

# Pour in tomatoes, seasoning to taste, and half a cup of water.

#Cover and cook for 20 mins.

#Check seasoning and add chick peas.

#Simmer for 2 minutes uncovered.

 

I usually serve this with couscous and some kind of steamed green veg.

And making enough meals for 8 or so "batch" meals to go in the freezer tis great!

[The Dogmother]

so you're converted then?

This is very similar to a recipe that our friend in Gibraltar gave us for a traditional Spanish stew.

 

The main difference being that his recipe doesn't use chicken and does include red wine

 

It's very yummy!

We do something a bit similar with chicken and chorizo and rice all in one pot.

 

Fry onion lightly

add chicken we sometimes use cooked sometimes raw depending on what we have

chunks of chorizo,

and various other things that are lurking in the fridge, sun dried tomatoes, olives, courgettes in summer, and some paprika.

 

add rice and enough stock to cook the rice by the absorbsion method, bung the whole lot in the oven or cook very gently on the hob.

 

Very tasty we are having this tonight

[hillfamily]

Just made this for an early tea.......and it's very very yummy

[Egluntyne]

I made it a couple of days ago for the boys. Went down a treat.

[Ygerna]

I made this yesterday and my word its nice. I had seconds, and thirds and I'm sorry to say a fourth ladle full too

 

It is going to be made again, and again in our house I think.
