What can I make for dinner with chicken & chorizo?

[chocolatesaltyballs22]

I was planning a paella but I'm not sure I fancy it. I have all of the usual food cupboard staples/spices etc. Does anyone have any magical chicken & chorizo recipes please? (The chicken is breasts).

Thanks!

Spanish Chicken Traybake

Chicken, Chorizo and butter bean stew

Either of those would be my go-to

Add potatoes, garlic, onion wedges and some grated orange zest and you've got yourself a tray bake!

Sauté the chicken and chorizo with garlic, onions. Add cream/sour cream/Creme fraiche to make a sauce.
Serve with sweet potato mash and sweetcorn. Mmm.

@sorryiasked I just came on this thread to link to that jambalaya recipe too, it’s a firm favourite in this house!

I make a version of Portuguese arroz de pato (duck rice) with chicken sometimes. It's quite similar to paella though.

I top mine with breadcrumbs tossed in garlic butter to make a crispy topping and serve with tomato jam or honey roasted tomatoes.

'Ck' stew. Chicken, chorizo and chickpea stew. Serve with crusty bread.

Do you have any cheese? I'd grate cheese over the chicken when it was cooked and then put chorizo on top and shove it under the grill. With chips/wedges and a bbq dip. Not exactly the healthiest but 🤷🏻‍♀️.

Make tapas - chicken cooked in tomatoes, garlic, onions & peppers, fried chorizo, patatas bravas, garlic mushrooms (if you have any) etc. Crusty bread & butter.

Chicken and chorizo pasta bake

Cook chicken and chop into small pieces
Fry off chorizo in own juice
Mix chicken and chorizo together with mixed herbs
Meanwhile cook pasta
Drain pasta mix chicken chorizo into pasta
Pour into dish
Top with copious amounts of cheese
Bake until cheese melted.

Thanks everyone I'm going to give the jambalaya a try I think.

@LindaEllen we always have cheese in this house!!

So glad this was posted - the Hairy Biker's chicken and chorizo traybake is in my oven, and it smells great :) Many thanks!

@Inextremis @TeaandHobnobs that hairy bikers bake is such a favourite in my house!

Jambalaya or paella.

I have jambalaya bubbling away as I type...smells good.

Nigella chicken and chorizo tray bake. Huge favourite in my house.
