Chorizo pilaf

Here is a dish with chorizo and rice and a bit of other things. I got this recipe from taste.com.au and just modified the recipe by adding capsicum.

Ingredients


2 tablespoons of olive oil
6 chorizo sausages, sliced
2 brown onions, halved and thinly sliced
2 teaspoons paprika
2 red capsicums
1 tablespoons ground cumin
2 cups basmati rice
4 cups of chicken stock
1/2 cup of flat leaf parsley leaves, chopped

The method

Heat some oil in a pan over medium heat. Cook the chorizo for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until golden, Remove and drain the chorizo on paper towels.


Then in the pan, that still contains chorizo oil, add onion and allow to cook for 2 minutes. Add garlic, chilli, paprika and cumin and cook until the onions soften.


Stir in the rice and add the chicken stock and chorizo. Bring the stock to the boil and then reduce the stove to medium. Simmer for 10 minutes until the rice softens.


Remove from the stove and allow to stand for 5 minutes. Stir through the parsley and its ready to serve. Mind you, I may have forgotten add the parsley. Not too sure how I do that as the recipe is right in front of me while cooking. Pregnancy brain, nappy brain, nope. Then what else.
