Ingredients

  • 120 g Chorizo diced
  • 2 Chicken thighs cut into chunks
  • 1 Onion diced
  • 150 g Risotto rice
  • 500 ml Chicken stock
  • 30 g Butter
  • 30 g Grated parmesan plus extra for serving
  • 10 g Parsley chopped

Instructions

  • Heat some cooking oil in a large frying pan, cook the chicken and chorizo over a high heat for about 5 minutes, until the chicken is sealed, and the chorizo starts to turn crispy.
  • Use a slotted spoon to remove the chicken and chorizo from the pan and set it aside. Keep the oil in the pan.
  • Chuck in the onion and cook until it softens, then add in the risotto rice and cook for a further few minutes, whilst continuously stirring.
  • Pour in the chicken stock, then get the chicken and chorizo back in the pan. Simmer for about 15 minutes, whilst stirring occasionally until the stock has been absorbed.
  • Add in the butter and grated parmesan and stir well. Once the butter melts stir through the chopped parsley and then taste for seasoning.
  • Dish it up, then finish it with more grated parmesan and some crispy chorizo slices (optional).
