My Favourite Chicken and Chorizo pasta  Ingredients - 600g chicken thigh, dice - 2 chorizo sausages, thinly sliced - 1 small brown onion, thinly sliced - 2 garlic cloves, roughly chopped - 400g tin diced tomatoes - 500ml chicken stock - 1.5 tsp capers, chopped - 300g pasta (any short shape works well) - ½ cup pasta water (reserved from boiling) - Handful of fresh parsley, finely chopped - 1 tsp smoked paprika - 1 tsp salt - 1 tsp black pepper - 1 tsp garlic powder - 1 tsp ground coriander - ½ tsp ground cumin - Splash of oil (for seasoning the chicken) - Salt (for pasta water) 1. In a bowl, combine diced chicken thigh with smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, ground coriander, ground cumin, and a splash of oil. Mix well and set aside. 2. In a large pot over medium-low heat, add sliced chorizo and cook slowly to render the fat and get some colour. Remove and set aside. 3. In the same pot, increase the heat to medium-high and add the seasoned chicken. Sear until lightly browned. 4. Add the sliced onion to the chicken and cook until softened. Stir in the garlic and fry for 30 seconds until fragrant. 5. Add the diced tomatoes and chicken stock. Bring to a simmer and cook uncovered for 10–15 minutes, or until reduced by half. 6. Stir in the chopped capers and return the cooked chorizo to the pot. 7. Boil pasta in a large pot of heavily salted water until al dente. Reserve ½ cup of the pasta water. 8. Add the cooked pasta and reserved pasta water directly into the sauce. Toss to coat, then stir through chopped parsley. Serve hot. #midweekmeals #DinnerIdeas #EasyRecipes #chickenpasta #pastadinner
