Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large pot or pan over a medium heat and then add the chicken pieces and brown for 2 to 3 minutes, before adding the chorizo sausage and sautéing for a further 2 minutes.
- Add the onions, garlic and red pepper, and sauté for a few minutes until the chorizo sausage releases red oil and the vegetables have softened slightly.
- Add the rice and mix thoroughly and cook for 1 to 2 minutes to coat it all in oil.
- Add the stock and smoked paprika, and place a lid on the pot/pan. Simmer over a very low heat, with the lid on, for 45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked and tender and the rice is soft and has absorbed all the liquid.
- Adjust the seasoning and gently fluff up the rice and mix all the vegetables and chicken through, before adding the olives and the chopped thyme.
- Serve immediately, setting the pot/pan on the table, with crusty bread and salad if liked.
Tips:
- To save time, use pre-cooked rice or boil your rice ahead of time.
- For a more flavorful dish, use chicken thighs instead of breasts.
- Don't be afraid to add more vegetables to the dish, such as bell peppers, carrots, or zucchini.
- If you don't have a Dutch oven, you can use a large pot or skillet instead.
- Serve the dish with a side of sour cream, salsa, or guacamole.

This one-pot Spanish chicken and rice dish is a flavorful and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a busy weeknight dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With its simple ingredients and quick cooking time, this dish is sure to become a family favorite.
