    • Preparation time: 10 minutes
    • Cooking time: 35 minutes
    • Total time: 45 minutes

    Serves: 4

    Ingredients

    280g jar Cooks’ Ingredients Chargrilled Red Peppers in Sunflower Oil
    12 Waitrose & Partners Chicken Chipolatas
    4 garlic cloves, crushed
    2 large tomatoes, coarsely grated
    1 tsp sweet smoked paprika
    250g bomba paella rice
    160g pack sliced runner beans
    500ml fresh chicken stock
    2 rosemary sprigs

    Method

    1. Drain the peppers, reserving the oil. Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a large frying pan or shallow casserole dish over a medium-high heat and fry the chicken chipolatas, turning regularly, for 8-10 minutes, until golden all over; lift out of the pan and set aside.

    2. Add the garlic, tomatoes and paprika to the pan, season and fry for 2-3 minutes until most of the water from the tomatoes has evaporated. Stir in the rice, drained peppers and the runner beans, then tip in the chicken stock. Bring to a simmer, return the chipolatas to the pan and nestle in the rosemary sprigs. Simmer briskly for 10 minutes, then turn to the lowest heat, cover with a lid (or a sheet of foil) and simmer very gently for 5 minutes until the sausages are cooked through and the rice is tender.

    3. Take the pan off the heat and rest for 5 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges and a green salad, if liked.
