chicken and mushroom one-pot paella

[goose1]

• 4 chicken breasts, cut into chunks
• 150g shiitake mushrooms, chopped
• 100g button mushrooms (or whatever type you like), chopped
• 1 onion, diced
• 4 cloves of garlic, minced
• 300g paella rice
• 1 tin of chopped tomatoes
• 1 tbsp chilli powder
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1 litre chicken stock (dissolve two chicken stock cubes in a litre of boiling water)
• pinch of salt and pepper

All of our hampers have massive amounts of chicken in – but actually, here’s a switch: you can now choose what you want to go in your hamper – so if you’re not a fan of chicken, say (unlike me), hoy some more beef in there. Up to you. To help you, we’ve updated our Musclefood page so it has all of the syn values on there it’ll open in a new window.

to make chicken and mushroom one-pot paella, you should:

• prepare the onion, chicken and mushroom and place into bowls – it makes it much easier!
• preheat the oven to 200°c
• in a large ovenproof casserole pot, add a little oil over a high heat
• add the chicken in two batches until seared in each side (this will take about five minutes)
• remove the chicken the pan into a large bowl and set aside
• add the mushrooms and cook for another few minutes, then add the onions, chopped garlic and some salt and pepper
• tip the mushrooms and onion in with the chicken
• add a little more oil to the now-empty pan, and then add the paella rice and spread out well int he bottom of the pan
• add the chicken stock and give a good stir, and then add the tomatoes, chilli powder and paprika
• stir in the chicken, mushrooms and onions and give another good stir, then bring the lot to a simmer
• place the pot in the oven uncovered for about 40 minutes
• serve!
