This is such a good family meal. Full of flavour and packed with goodness, it’s something the whole family will enjoy yet can be cooked up in next to no time. The chorizo adds a subtle kick that helps to bring out the best in everything else, bringing all those robust flavours together.
Serve with generous helpings of garlic bread and plenty of freshly grated parmesan cheese if you’re feeling indulgent.
