Tomato & chorizo rice

pack small cooking chorizo sausages, halved lengthways

onion

garlic

tsp sweet smoked paprika

basmati rice

chicken stock (or gluten-free alternative)

peppers

cherry tomato

Heat a large frying pan on a medium-high heat. Add the sliced chorizo halves, cut-side down, and cook until the oil starts to come out and they begin to crisp at the edges.

Tip the onion and garlic into the pan with the chorizo slices, and cook for a few mins more. Stir in the paprika and rice, mix well so that all the grains are coated, then pour in the hot chicken stock and add the roasted peppers. Stir everything, then cover the pan with a lid and cook for 5 mins.

Stir in the tomatoes and olives, and cook 8-10 mins more until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed into it.

The smoky paprika flavour of chorizo pairs wonderfully with chicken in this quick and simple stuffed chicken breast recipe.

Chorizo-stuffed chicken

shallot, grated

parsley

breadcrumbs

cooking chorizo

lemon

chicken breasts

Preheat the oven to 190°C/fan170°C/gas 5.

In a bowl, mix the grated shallot, parsley, breadcrumbs, egg, the chorizo and a squeeze of lemon.

Make a pocket between the skin and meat of 4 large free-range chicken breasts, ensuring the skin stays attached at the sides. Stuff each breast with a quarter of the chorizo mixture and press to spread. Season the skin and rub with olive oil.

Roast for 20 minutes, then serve with mash, greens and lemon wedges.

Infused with classic Cajun spices, this flavoursome rice dish gets a kick from cayenne pepper.
