Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 250g cooking chorizo
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, chopped
- 400g tin chopped tomatoes
- 500ml fresh chicken stock
- 300g leftover cooked turkey or chicken, meat shredded
- 400g tin chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- Juice 1 lemon
- Small bunch fresh flatleaf parsley, roughly chopped
Method
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan, add the chorizo and fry for 3-4 minutes until turning crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon, leaving the flavoured oil in the pan. Add the onion and garlic and cook gently for 8 minutes or until soft and sweet, then add the tomatoes and stock. Turn up the heat to high and bubble to reduce for 10 minutes.
- Add the chicken and chickpeas with the chorizo and any resting juices, then cook for 3-5 minutes until warmed though. Taste and season with salt, pepper and the lemon juice, then scatter with the chopped parsley and serve.
