One Pot Wonder with chicken and chorizo | My go-to winter dish that's super easy!

chicken thighs

🥗Healthier: skinless chicken thighs

💰Cheaper: chicken drumsticks

Skinless thighs are lower in fat; drumsticks are often cheaper.

chorizo sausage

🥗Healthier: turkey chorizo

💰Cheaper: pork sausage

Turkey chorizo is lower in calories; pork sausage is usually less expensive.

Start by gathering pantry staples like canned tomatoes and beans, garlic, onion, salt, pepper, and olive oil.

Chop the vegetables roughly, including bell peppers, asparagus, broccolini, and zucchini.

Dice the chicken thighs into small pieces.

Heat a large cast iron Dutch oven over medium heat and add olive oil.

Add the chorizo sausage and cook until browned, then remove and set aside.

In the same pot, add the diced chicken thighs and brown them on all sides.

Add the chopped onion and garlic, sauté until softened.

Stir in the chopped vegetables and cook until they start to soften.

Add canned tomatoes and beans to the pot.

Season with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika, stirring to combine.

Cover the pot and let it simmer until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
