It uses the brilliant red pepper so prolific in the markets. Chicken legs, slowly simmered until the meat falls from the bone delivers great flavour.<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERIngredients\">\n<div class=\"ERIngredientsHeader\">Ingredients<\/div>\n<ul class=\"ingredients\">\n<li class=\"ingredient\">4 oz dry chorizo, sliced 1\/4 inch thick<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">6 whole chicken legs or chicken thighs (around 3 1\/2 lbs)<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">2 medium red bell peppers, cut into 1\/2 thick strips<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">2 medium red onions, thinly sliced<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">6 large garlic cloves, thinly sliced<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">2 large thyme sprigs<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved or 1 cup drained San Marzano whole tomatoes<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">3\/4 cup dry sherry<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">2 tsp sweet paprika<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">3\/4 tsp crushed red pepper<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">2 tbsp shredded basil<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Crusty French bread, for serving<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERInstructions\">\n<div class=\"ERInstructionsHeader\">Instructions<\/div>\n<div class=\"instructions\">\n<ol>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Saute the chorizo in a deep skillet over moderate heat, stirring, until lightly browned and some of the fat is rendered, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon transfer the chorizo to a large plate.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Heat the olive oil in the skillet. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and cook over moderately high heat, turning once, until well browned, 15 minutes. Add the chicken to the chorizo.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Add the bell peppers, red onions, garlic, crushed red pepper and thyme to the skillet and cook over moderate heat until barely softened, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, sherry, paprika and cook until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 10 minutes.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Put the chicken and the chorizo into a large baking dish and cover with the sauce. Cover and bake in a 350 oven for around 3\/4 of an hour. Remove the cover and bake for 5 or 10 minutes more so the sauce thickens. Stir the basil into the sauce and serve with crusty bread.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERNutrition\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"endeasyrecipe\" style=\"display: none;\">3.3.3077<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"simple_likebuttons_container_small\">\r\n      <div class=\"simple_likebuttons_facebook\">\r\n        <div id=\"fb-root\"><\/div>\r\n        <script>(function(d, s, id) {\r\n          var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];\r\n          if (d.getElementById(id)) {return;}\r\n          js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;\r\n          js.src = \"\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/all.js#xfbml=1\";\r\n          fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);\r\n        }(document, \"script\", \"facebook-jssdk\"));<\/script>\r\n        <div class=\"fb-like\" data-href=\"http:\/\/mrsbutterfingers.com\/?p=7\" data-send=\"false\" data-layout=\"button_count\" data-show-faces=\"false\" data-width=\"90\"><\/div>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    \r\n      <div class=\"simple_likebuttons_twitter simple_likebuttons_twitter_s\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/share\" class=\"twitter-share-button\" data-count=\"none\" data-url=\"http:\/\/mrsbutterfingers.com\/?p=7\" data-lang=\"en\">Tweet<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    \r\n      <div class=\"simple_likebuttons_googleplus\">\r\n        <g:plusone size=\"medium\" count=\"false\" href=\"http:\/\/mrsbutterfingers.com\/?p=7\"><\/g:plusone>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    \r\n      <div class=\"simple_likebuttons_linkedin simple_likebuttons_linkedin_s\">\r\n        <script type=\"IN\/Share\" data-url=\"http:\/\/mrsbutterfingers.com\/?p=7\" data-counter=\"right\"><\/script>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    \r\n      <div class=\"simple_likebuttons_xing simple_likebuttons_xing_s\">\r\n        <script data-url=\"http:\/\/mrsbutterfingers.com\/?p=7\" data-lang=\"de\" data-counter=\"right\" type=\"XING\/Share\"><\/script>\r\n        <script>\r\n          ;(function(d, s) {\r\n            var x = d.createElement(s),\r\n              s = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];\r\n            x.src ='https:\/\/www.xing-share.com\/js\/external\/share.js';\r\n            s.parentNode.insertBefore(x, s);\r\n          })(document, 'script');\r\n        <\/script>\r\n      <\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Take some brilliant red peppers, add a red onion, toss in tomatoes and garlic and create alchemy with chicken and chorizo.\u00a0 The combination is rich and welcoming and fills your kitchen the most delicious aroma.\u00a0\u00a0 This spectacular recipe is one &hellip; <a href=\"http:\/\/mrsbutterfingers.com\/?p=7\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":713,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"gallery","meta":{"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":[],"wprm-recipe-roundup-description":[],"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[576,577,578,1307,89],"class_list":["post-7","post","type-post","status-publish","format-gallery","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-chicken","tag-chicken-casserole","tag-chorizo","tag-daniel-boulud","tag-one-dish-meal","tag-san-marzano-tomatoes","post_format-post-format-gallery"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/mrsbutterfingers.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/mrsbutterfingers.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/mrsbutterfingers.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/mrsbutterfingers.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/mrsbutterfingers.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=7"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"http:\/\/mrsbutterfingers.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3310,"href":"http:\/\/mrsbutterfingers.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7\/revisions\/3310"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/mrsbutterfingers.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/713"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/mrsbutterfingers.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=7"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/mrsbutterfingers.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=7"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/mrsbutterfingers.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=7"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
