👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Cut the chicken into bite-size cubes and place in a medium bowl. Drizzle over a few tablespoons of olive oil, red wine vinegar, a teaspoon of paprika and half the oregano, thyme and chilli flakes. Mix to combine.
  2. 2Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken in batches and cook until seared on both sides. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  3. 3In the same pan, heat a tablespoon of oil then add the onion and garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes then add the remaining paprika, oregano, thyme and chilli flakes.

  5. 5Add the chicken back to the pan along with any of its resting juices and cook for another 5-7 minutes or until the sauce has thickened and the chicken is cooked through.
  6. 6Scatter over fresh parsley and serve with crusty bread or steamed rice.
