4 servings

  • 2 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, skin removed, de-boned and cut into thick strips
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon cumin powder
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper powder
  • 1 tablespoon fresh oregano, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • ½ cup onion, diced
  • ⅔ cup carrot, diced
  • 1 lb chorizo sausage, sliced
  • 2 cups basmati rice
  • ⅔ cup red bell pepper, diced
  • ⅔ cup green bell pepper
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon saffron
  • 1 cup beer
  • 2 tablespoons caper vinaigre
  • ¼ cup small capers
  • 1 cup green pea, cooked
  • ½ cup pimento-stuffed green olives
  • ⅓ cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions

  • Place the chicken bones in a pot with water to cook for 20 minutes and strain the liquid. Add the salt and saffron to the water so that it releases the color.
  • Mix the spices in a bowl and season the chicken. Brown the chicken and set aside. Then, in the same pan, brown the onion with carrots and chorizos. Add the rice and stir together, browning.
  • Add green peppers, red peppers, chicken, and boiling chicken broth with saffron and beer. Cover the pan and simmer for 17 minutes.
  • After 17 minutes add peas, olives, capers and caper vinaigrette to the top of the dish. Cover and cook for 3 more minutes. Uncover, add the coriander and stir.
  • Serve immediately.
