Ingredients

3 tbsp light olive oil
8 boneless skinless chicken thighs, each cut into four pieces
1 onion, finely sliced
500g floury potatoes, peeled & cubed
1/2 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp sundried tomato paste
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tbsp red wine vinegar
100ml medium-dry Fino sherry
300ml tub fresh chicken stock
4 tbsp soured cream, to serve
handful flat-leaf parsley, chopped, to serve

  1. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a sauté or deep frying pan over a medium heat. Season the chicken and add to the pan. Fry for about 4 mins until browned all over. Lift out of the pan and set aside. Heat the remaining oil in the pan and fry the onion for about 3 mins, until it is just softened, then add the garlic and cook for a further min.

  2. Add the potatoes, mustard and sundried tomato paste to the pan, and cook for 1 min. Stir in the paprika, vinegar, sherry and stock. Bring to the boil and allow the liquid to reduce for 2 mins.

  3. Return the chicken to the pan, cover and simmer for 10 mins. Stir well and simmer with the lid off for another 8 mins, or until the sauce is thickened and the potatoes and chicken cooked through. Can be frozen at this point for up to 1 month. Check the seasoning and serve in bowls with a dollop of soured cream and a sprinkling of parsley.
