Top Tips

  • Don’t worry if you don’t have the exact amount of leftover ingredients – just go with what you have!
  • Instead of leftover rice, you can just use quick cook microwave rice in pouches
  • Instead of leftover chicken, feel free to either use raw chicken and cook first in the pan (before onions and chorizo) or precook chicken thighs/breast and shred before adding to this dish
  • We used frozen spicy chorizo – but use whatever you have! Chorizo will last for up to a month in the fridge if tightly wrapped
  • Use any variation of vegetables you like/have to hand
