Chicken with Chorizo and Red Wine

Charmaine Lu -

  • 1 tsp chilli powder
  • 2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 chicken thigh fillet, bone removed
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • ½ sliced onion
  • 2 chopped garlic cloves
  • 1 small chorizo, chopped
  • 100ml red wine
  • 50g broad beans, podded and skin removed
  • 1 tbsp chopped chives
  • Chopped parsley
  • Preheat the oven to 180C. Mix the paprika with the chilli powder and some salt and pepper. Open the chicken thigh fillet so that it’s flattened, roll in the spice mixture, then fry in 1 tbsp of oil until golden all over. Transfer to the oven and roast for 12 mins or until cooked through.
  • Meanwhile, fry the onion and garlic in the rest of the oil until softened. Add the chorizo and fry for 5 mins, then pour in the wine and simmer for 5 mins to slightly reduce. Add the beans, stir well and season to taste. Remove the chicken from the oven and slice into strips, then add the chicken and chives to the chorizo mixture and stir to combine. Serve with a garnish of fresh parsley and some crusty bread.
