Chicken & Chorizo Casserole – Slow Cooker or Oven

Sometimes the best meals are the cheapers, especially when it comes to using cheaper cuts of meat like chicken drumsticks and thighs. Any meat cooked on the bone will always have a far better flavour due to the flavour the bones give to the dish when cooking.

This is a great one for a midweek meal when you are looking for something easy and inexpensive to make yet want something tasty.

There is a small amount of work to do before you pop it into your slow cooker or oven but once that is done the dish will cook away while you do all the things busy mums and dads have to do.

I really enjoyed this dish when I made it. I ate it with Aines family who also really enjoyed it.

The dish may end up a little greasy, this is easily fixed by skimming the grease off the top when cooked. Simple use a ladle to skim it off the top without stirring it into the sauce then discard it. This is exactly how we do it in professional kitchens.
