  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • pack of 6 skinless boneless chicken thighs , cut into large chunks
  • 2 tbsp peri-peri seasoning
  • 1 onion , finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves , crushed

Instruction

  • Heat the oil in a large pan over a medium heat. Rub the chicken with 1 tbsp of the peri-peri and brown in the pan for 1 min each side until golden. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • Add the onion to the pan and cook on a gentle heat for 8-10 mins until soft. Add the garlic and remaining peri-peri, and give everything a stir. Tip in the rice and stir to coat.
  • Add the stock and return the chicken to the pan. Add the peppers and cover with a lid, then simmer gently for 25 mins until cooked. About 5 mins before the end of cooking, add the tomatoes.
  • Stir through the parsley, scatter over the chillies (if you like it spicy) and serve with lemon wedges.
