METHOD

1. Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan or skillet with a lid over a medium-high heat. Add the chicken to the pan and sprinkle over the sriracha seasoning. Sauté for 4-5 minutes until golden brown but not cooked through. Transfer to a plate with a slotted spoon.
2. Add the onion and pepper to the pan and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in the garlic and chorizo and then sprinkle over the poultry seasoning. Sauté for another couple of minutes until softened and catching a bit of colour.
3. Stir the rice into the pan and cook for 1 minute, stirring. Add the tomatoes and stock and then add back in the chicken. Season to taste and cover with a lid. Simmer for 20 minutes, moving the pan around so that it doesn’t catch on the bottom. Turn of the heat and then leave undisturbed for another 10 minutes. Serve straight to the table with a bowl of the greens.
