Easy prawn jambalaya

Step 1

Heat the oil in a lidded non-stick pan. Add the chorizo and cook until it crisps up a little and gives out some oil. Add the vegetables, cook on a gentle heat, stirring now and again, for 10 minutes or until softened.

Step 2

Stir in the herbs and spices, and cook for a minute. Tip in the rice and stir everything together until the rice is coated and starting to toast. Add the stock, stir and bring to a simmer. Put on a lid then leave on a low simmer for 15 minutes or until the rice is cooked and stock absorbed. If it looks a little dry during cooking, add another splash of stock or water.

Step 3

Take off the lid and stir in the tomatoes and prawns. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the prawns are cooked through. Stir in the parsley and Tabasco, and serve with more hot sauce on the side, if you like.
