Cooking Steps

GET PREPPED
1

Halve the cherry tomatoes. Finely chop the brown onion. Finely chop the garlic (or use a garlic press). Pick the thyme leaves. Cut the mild chorizo (see ingredients list) into 1cm chunks. Cut the chicken thigh into 2cm chunks.

TIP: Hold each thyme sprig at the top, then gently run your fingers down to remove the leaves. If the sprigs are very soft, you can just chop them instead.

COOK THE CHORIZO & CHICKEN
2

In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a high heat. When the oil is hot, add the chorizo and cook, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl. Add the chicken to the pan and cook until browned and cooked through, 5 minutes. Add to the bowl with the chorizo.

TIP: Cook the chicken in batches if your pan is getting crowded!

START THE RISONI
3

Return the frying pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until softened, 4-5 minutes. Add the garlic, Italian herbs, thyme and a pinch of chilli flakes (if using) and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.

FINISH THE RISONI
4

Add the risoni and cherry tomatoes to the pan and stir to combine. Add the water and crumbled chicken stock (1 cube for 2 people / 2 cubes for 4 people). Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the risoni is 'al dente' and the water is absorbed, 15-17 minutes. Reserve 2 portions of the chicken and chorizo (about 1 cup) for lunch, then add the remaining chicken and chorizo to the pan. Add the butter, shredded Cheddar cheese and baby spinach leaves (reserve 2 handfuls for lunch!) and stir until the spinach has wilted.

TIP: Add a dash more water if your risoni looks dry.

SERVE UP DINNER
5

Divide the chicken, chorizo and cherry tomato risoni between bowls.

MAKE LUNCH
6

When you're ready to pack your lunch, thinly slice the tomato into half-moons. Divide the chicken and chorizo between two microwavable containers. Divide the classic wraps (see ingredients list), creamy pesto dressing packets, reserved baby spinach leaves and tomato slices between two lunch packages. Refrigerate. At lunch, microwave the chicken and chorizo in 30 second bursts until heated through. Spread the creamy pesto dressing over the classic wraps and top with the baby spinach leaves, tomato, chicken and chorizo. Roll up and enjoy!
