Preparation
1
Get Prepped

  • Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
  • Halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips.
  • Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
  • Halve the tomatoes. Halve the lemon.
  • Roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all).

2
Roast the Veg

  • Pop the peppers onto a lined baking tray and drizzle with oil.
  • Season with salt and pepper and toss to coat.
  • Roast in your oven until charred and soft, 18-20 mins.
  • Halfway through cooking, add the tomatoes to the tray and pop back into the oven for the remaining time. 
  • Once cooked, remove from your oven and cover with foil to keep warm.

3
Fry the Chicken and Chorizo

  • While the veg roasts, place a large pan over high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Once hot, add the diced chicken and chorizo. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands after handling raw meat.
  • Season well with salt and pepper.
  • Fry until browned, 4-6 mins. Stir occasionally to avoid sticking.

TIP: You may want to do this in batches to avoid stewing the chicken.

4
Add the Rice

  • Stir the garlic and paprika into the pan and cook for 1 min.
  • Add the rice.
  • Stir well to fully coat and cook for 1 min.
  • Pour in 350ml water (double for 4p) along with the stock.

5
Cook the Rice

  • Bring the pan to the boil.
  • Reduce the heat to medium, cover with a lid (or some foil) and cook for 10 mins.
  • Once cooked, remove from the heat and set aside (still covered) for another 10 mins. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
  • Once ready, add in the roasted pepper and tomato along with a squeeze of lemon juice and half the parsley.

6
Serve Up

  • Stir everything to combine, then taste and season with salt, pepper and more lemon juice if you like.
  • Cut any remaining lemon into wedges.
  • Sprinkle on the remaining parsley.
  • Place the pan on the table, top with lemon wedges, and let everyone help themselves.
