Ingredients
  

  • 1 cooking chorizo sliced (approx. 50g)
  • 0.5 onion sliced
  • 200g chickpeas from a 400g can drained and rinsed
  • 200g chopped tomatoes from a 400g can
  • 1 tsp sweet pimenton or smoked paprika
  • handful of spinach
  • 1 tbsp olive oil plus extra for drizzling
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over a medium heat, then add the chorizo and fry for a 3 to 4 minutes until it starts to brown. Add the sliced onion and cook for a further minute until it starts to go translucent.
  • Add the chickpeas and fry for a couple of minutes, coating everything in the paprika infused oil, then add the chopped tomatoes and pimenton, season with salt and pepper, and simmer for 5 minutes until the sauce has thickened.
  • Just before serving, stir in the spinach until it wilts. Serve the stew with a drizzle of olive oil and plenty of freshly ground black pepper…and maybe some crusty bread or garlic bread to soak up the lovely sauce - enjoy!
