Ingredients
  

Chicken and Chorizo Base
  • 600 g chicken breast cut into large cubes
  • 150 g beef or turkey chorizo sliced into rounds
  • 1 onion finely sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
Creamy Sauce
  • 200 ml chicken broth
  • 200 ml heavy cream 30% fat or more
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped, for garnish
  • 1 pinch salt to taste
  • 1 pinch black pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the chicken pieces and sear them until golden on the outside. Remove them from the pan and set aside; they will finish cooking later in the sauce.
  3. In the same skillet, add the sliced chorizo, onion, and garlic. Cook for several minutes until the onion becomes soft and the chorizo releases its flavorful oil.
  4. Return the chicken to the pan and pour in the chicken broth. Stir gently while scraping the bottom of the pan to release the cooking juices.
  5. Let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes so the chicken absorbs the smoky flavors.
  6. Add the cream and stir well to combine. Continue cooking for about 5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the chicken.
  7. Season with salt and black pepper if needed, then sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
  8. Serve hot with rice, pasta, or crusty bread to enjoy the creamy sauce.

Notes

For additional flavor, add sliced red peppers with the onions. You can also replace part of the chicken with shrimp for a delicious land-and-sea variation inspired by Spanish cuisine.
