Juicy seasoned chicken thighs in a rich and creamy chorizo sauce!<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

If you’ve been around here for a little while, you’ll know chicken and chorizo is one of my all-time favourite combos. Today we’re celebrating it in the form of a one-pan wonder! Follow me…<\/p>\n

Chicken Thighs<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

For this recipe we’ll be using boneless skinless chicken thighs. I love using chicken thighs in this recipe because they add so much flavour to the sauce<\/strong>! They’re fattier than breasts, so when you fry them they leave behind a gorgeous pool of fat (aka flavour). This is perfect to incorporate into a sauce.<\/p>\n

The sauce is packed with so much flavour, but we still want the thighs to hold their own<\/strong>. As such, we’ll be giving them a good seasoning on both sides. I like a smoked paprika-based seasoning mix, just to compliment the smokiness of the chorizo.<\/p>\n

Pan-Fried Chicken Thighs<\/h3>\n

We’re going to pan-fry the thighs, not only so we can use the excess fat, but also so we can get a light char on the meat<\/strong>. In moderation, char adds some lovely flavour to the meat and really adds to the smokiness of the dish.<\/p>\n
