| Spanish Chicken And Rice Recipe With Chorizo |
A simpler version of Arroz con Pollo, this Spanish chicken and rice recipe with chorizo is every bit a satisfying and flavorful, one-pan-wonder!
I couldn’t quite get myself to call this recipe Arroz con Pollo. At it’s core, this Spanish chicken and rice recipe is Arroz Con Pollo, but more accurately, a simpler bare-bones version.
The flavors in this Spanish chicken and rice are still the biggest draw for me.'
First, the chicken is covered in a simple spice rub that includes smoked paprika, garlic powder, and a hint of cayenne pepper. And before we do anything else, we brown the chicken in olive oil; because crispy chicken skin is a must! And who can resist the fuller, caramelized flavor?!
Then, of course, we add Chorizo sausage, which bestows a tangy, deeper, and slightly spicy flavor to the whole dish.
Onions, green peppers, tomatoes, broth and rice go into the same pan with the browned chicken and Chorizo. And that’s all the work it takes!
From here, everything cooks together for about an hour, until we have a perfectly savory one-pan Spanish chicken and rice.
IMPORTANT TIP
Once cooked, leave the Spanish chicken and rice in the covered pan, undisturbed for 10 minutes or so. Rice needs time to rest, and allowing the time means that the starch will set and the moisture can evenly distribute so you don’t end up with a gluey mess.
WHAT TO SERVE WITH THIS SPANISH CHICKEN AND RICE?
Personally, I think this is meant to stand on its own–a bowl full of chicken and rice goodness! But it’s nice to add a little side salad to compliment the hearty bowl. Two of my favorites are this kidney bean and cilantro salad or this fattoush salad.
