Ingredients

Method

Preheat the oven to 200°C.

Season the chicken generously with salt. Warm the olive oil in a

large ovenproof frying pan over medium–high heat. Add the chicken, skin-side

down, and cook for 2–3 minutes, until the skin is golden. Turn the chicken over

and cook for another 1–2 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside, skin-side

up.

Reduce the heat to medium–low and add the onion, garlic and

capsicum with a pinch of salt. Gently cook for 7–8 minutes, until softened and

beginning to colour. Add the spices and crumble in the chorizo. Cook for a

further 3–4 minutes, until the chorizo is beginning to colour, then add the

tomato paste and rice and stir to coat, allowing the rice to toast for a minute

or two. Increase the heat to medium and pour in the wine, scraping the base of

the pan to release any caramelised bits. Pour in the chicken or vegetable stock

and add the bay leaves and oregano. Stir so that everything is evenly

distributed throughout the stock. Season with a little more salt and some

pepper.

Nestle the chicken thighs back into the pan, skin-side up, then

transfer to the oven and cook for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and scatter

in the olives, then return the pan to the oven and cook for a further 10

minutes or until the rice is tender and the chicken is golden and cooked

through. Serve with plenty of chopped parsley scattered over the top and lemon

wedges on the side.
