Method
- Heat the oil in a large pan and add the onion, peppers, garlic, chorizo and chicken pieces before cooking for about 5 minutes.
- Add the chilli pepper, celery (if you want to add some!) and rice, then stir well. Add the chilli powder, turmeric and Cajun spices, mix well; making sure the rice is well coated with the flavours and season heavily with sea salt and black pepper.
- Add the chicken stock or water and bring to a simmer. Once the rice is nearly cooked (after about 20-25 minutes), add the frozen peas and mix well. Then cook for a further 5 minutes or until the rice and chicken are both cooked.
- Taste for seasoning and then add sea salt, black pepper and more Cajun spice, if necessary. You can add more stock if it's a little dry.
You can add king prawns for extra protein to this dish or how about finishing with a sprinkling of parsley?
