Serves 4
INGREDIENTS:
- 90g Tesco finest reduced fat spanish chorizo
- 8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 1 white onion, peeled and quartered
- 1 red onion, peeled and quartered
- 500g new potatoes, quartered lengthways
- 6 smoked garlic cloves, unpeeled (if you can’t get smoked garlic normal works just as fine)
- 8 medium tomatoes, quartered
- 2 teaspoons SpiceNTice chimichurri rub (See note above about this rub)
- 2 bell peppers, deseeded and sliced
- 3 large carrots, roughly chopped
- Head of a whole broccoli
METHOD:
- Preheat the oven to 200°C.
- Put the onions, potatoes, garlic cloves and tomatoes in a large roasting tin, season with salt and pepper and roast for 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile skin the chorizo and cut into 5mm slices and then cut the slices in half.
- Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
- Once the 20 minutes is up stir the chorizo through the vegetables and place the chicken over the top, sprinkle the chimichurri rub all over and give a gentle shake.
- Place back in the oven for a further 20 minutes.
- After the 20 minutes take out the tin and baste everything with any juices at the bottom of the tin, add the sliced peppers and broccoli around the chicken and turn the oven up to 220°C.
- Put back in the oven and cook for another 20 minutes or until the peppers are softened and the chicken is golden and crisp.
- As you eat squeeze the garlic out the skins and enjoy the soft and fragrant flesh, or simply mash in with the sauce from the tomatoes.
