About the Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1kg Chicken Thigh Fillets

  • Half a Chorizo loop, chopped into small cubes

  • 1 tin Chopped Tomatoes 

  • 2 cups Chicken Stock 

  • 1 Red Onion 

  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil 

  • 3 Bell Peppers, chunky chop 

  • 2 tins Beans, of choice - we like kidney, butter and black beans 

  • 1 tsp Paprika, Smoked Paprika, Garlic Granules, Mixed Herbs 

  • 1/2 tsp Cayenne Pepper

  • Salt and Pepper, to taste 

Preparation

  • Set the pressure cooker to saute and heat 1 tbsp of oil, then add the onion and garlic, and cook for a few minutes until it starts to soften. Then add the chicken thighs (no need to cut) and leave for around 5 minutes to brown slightly, turning occasionally.

  • When the chicken has started to change colour, add the spices, tinned tomatoes and stock. Let it come up to a gentle bubble.

  • Set on high pressure for 1.5 hours. Or a slow cooker for 4-6 hours. 

  • Now you've rested well and the food has bubbled gently, add the beans and peppers. Then leave for another hour to let the veg and beans soften.

  • Serve with rice.
