Anna's Family Kitchen was inspired by my love of food and desire to feed my family healthy, home cooked wholesome meals that are beautifully presented and appealing but don’t require hours of prep in the kitchen.
Spanish Chorizo, Chicken, Vegetable & Butter Bean Tray Bake
You probably know by now that I’m a massive chorizo fan, & so when the Spanish Chorizo Consortium invited me to take part in its #CookingChorizo campaign & create a recipe to feature in it’s cook book, I jumped at the chance. Take a look at the Spanish Chorizo Consortium’s website https://chorizoespanol.es/en/home-english/ for more inspiration. Some of my favourite chorizo recipes include Flamenco Eggs, Paella, Chicken & Chorizo Pasta & Spanish Pork, Chorizo & Chickpea Stew. Chorizo works brilliantly with white fish too. But I decided this time to make a Spanish inspired traybake pairing the chorizo with fresh veggies, chicken & butter beans. You know how I love one pan cooking! Brown the chicken then add all the other ingredients and roast in the oven. So simple!
