Whether it is made with chicken, seafood, sausage, or a combination of these, the result is always the same: a sensational Spanish dish.
Using our high-quality, richly seasoned chorizo sausage, our dish seamlessly blends these salty and savoury notes with earthy spinach, red & yellow bell peppers, tangy tomato paste, a fragrant chicken stock, zesty lemon and fresh herbs for garnish.
Method
- Heat the olive oil in a pan and add the sliced chorizo.
- Over a medium heat, cook for 8-10 minutes until crispy and caramelised. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- In the same pan, add the diced peppers and cook for 4-5 minutes until tender. Add the spring onion, garlic and spinach and heat until the spinach has wilted. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- In the pan, add the tomato paste, Cape Herb Chipotle Chilli spice, chicken stock and salt and whisk until the sauce is smooth. Cook for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened and smooth.
- Return the chorizo and the vegetables to the sauce and the cooked rice. Mix well and allow to cook for 2 minutes to allow the flavours to blend. Season to taste with salt, pepper and lemon juice.
- Add the chopped fresh coriander or parsley as garnish.
