Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 2 large Onion
  • 2 cloves Garlic
  • 300 grams Chorizo
  • 8 Chicken thigh (Boneless)
  • 200 ml Red wine (See recipe notes for red wine choice)
  • 400 gram Can chopped tomato
  • 400 ml Chicken stock
  • 400 gram Cannellini beans (Or kidney beans, black beans, butter beans. The choice is yours)
  • 300 gram Frozen peas

Garnish

  • 80 gram Coriander or Parsley (Optional)

Instructions
 

Prep

  • Chop the vegetables into a small dice
  • Remove the skin from the chorizo, if necessary, and chop into smallish chunks
  • Cut the chicken into bite-size pieces
  • Weigh/ measure other ingredients

To Make

  • Over a medium heat, warm a little oil in your stockpot and add the onions and a small pinch of salt. Soften for 5-10 minutes, with lid on, stirring frequently
  • Add garlic and chorizo and cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chorizo starts releasing its oils
  • Turn up the heat to medium high and add the chicken pieces and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes stirring frequently
  • Add the wine and scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the pot then add the tomatoes and the stock
  • Reduce the heat to low, maintaining a slow simmer, partly cover and cook for 30 minutes. Stir occasionally.
  • After 30 minutes add the beans and peas and cook for 5-10 minutes until they are warmed through

Garnish

  • Sprinkle with chopped coriander or parsley if desired. Serve as is or accompany with perhaps mashed potato or fresh crusty bread

Notes

  • While many red wines would do, I would choose something  medium-bodied with good acidity and fruitiness. 3 good choices might be grenache, rioja or a  syrah/shiraz
