CHORIZO EGGS RECIPE RECIPES

1. Peel and finely slice the garlic, peel and roughly chop the onion and carrot. Finely chop the parsley stalks, then roughly chop the chorizo and chicken thighs.
2. Put a lug of oil into a large lidded shallow casserole or paella pan on a medium heat, add the garlic, onion, carrot, parsley stalks, chorizo, chicken and paprika, and fry for around 5 minutes, stirring regularly.
3. Deseed and chop the pepper, then add to the pan for a further 5 minutes.
4. Stir through the tomato purée and crumble in the stock cube, then add the rice and stir for a couple of minutes so it starts to suck up all that lovely flavour.
5. Pour in 750ml of boiling water and add a pinch of sea salt and black pepper. Pop the lid on and bring to the boil, then reduce to a simmer for 15 minutes, stirring regularly from the outside in and from the inside out, and adding a splash of water if needed.
6. Stir in the peas and prawns, replace the lid, and cook for a further 5 minutes, or until hot through.
7. Season to perfection, then chop the parsley leaves, scatter them over the paella, and serve with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over.

Heat the olive oil in a large, deep frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and cook, stirring frequently, for 8-10 minutes until soft. Add the chopped garlic and paprika for the last minute.

Stir through the paella rice, then add the saffron and stock. Bring to the boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook, covered, for 15 minutes. Stir in the peas for the final 2 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat another frying pan over a medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook for 3 minutes until browned. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside. Add the chicken and cook for 10 minutes until golden and cooked through with no pink remaining. Stir the chorizo, chicken and parsley through the rice mixture to serve.
