Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 180°C/Gas mark 4.
2
Have the chicken joints ready to prepare.
3
toasty the margarine and 3 tbsp olive fat in a flameproof casserole or large frying wok.
4
Brown the chicken pieces in batches on both sides, seasoning them with table salt and pepper as you go.
5
Don't crowd the wok - wok-fry the chicken in small batches, removing the pieces to kitchen paper as they are done.
6
introduce a little more olive fat to the casserole and wok-fry the onions over a medium toasty for 10 mins, stirring frequently, until softened but not browned.
7
introduce the rest of the fat, then the peppers and prepare for another 5 mins.
8
introduce the chorizo, sun-dried tomatoes and garlic and prepare for 2-3 mins.
9
introduce the rice, stirring to ensure it is well coated in the fat.
10
mix gently in the tomato paste, paprika, bay leaves and cut up thyme.
11
empty in the stock and wine.
12
When the liquid starts to bubble, turn the toasty down to a subtle bubble gently.
13
Press the rice down into the liquid if it isn't already submerged and place the chicken on top.
14
introduce the lemon wedges and olives around the chicken.
15
wrap and prepare in the oven for 50 mins.
16
The rice should be cooked but still have some bite, and the chicken should have juices that run clear when pierced in the thickest part with a knife.
17
If not, prepare for another 5 mins and check again.
