Spanish Style Chicken and Chorizo Stew

A warming one pot supper to enjoy before the longer, lighter and (hopefully) warmer days herald the return to salads and BBQ foods. Serve with some crusty bread, or rice if you prefer.

The smoked paprika gives this dish a wonderful smokey flavour but if you like it a little hotter, add an extra tsp of chilli flakes.

    One of my favourite combos. I never put the beans in though, must try that.

    Coincidental timing...I made something similar on Monday night. The recipe I use doesn't have the beans, though - it uses potatoes to bulk up the sauce.

    I have a very similar recipe that I love, but it uses marmalade, cinnamon and chicken stock instead of chopped tomatoes and kidney beans. It gives it a sweetness that contrasts really well with the spiciness of the paprika and chorizo.

    I've seen daffodils popping up over the last week or so, it's hard to believe but it's starting to feel like winter might not last forever. Though I don't think I'd mind permanent winter if I had a bottomless pot of this! It's such a beautiful colour and it looks so delicious.
