Method
- Add oil to pan on medium heat and cook chicken and chorizo until chicken is sealed.

- Add onions to pan and fry on medium heat until softened.
- Add water, peppers, courgette and garlic to pan. Reduce heat slightly and cook for 5 minutes with lid on. Stir frequently ensuring you reach the bottom of the pan to prevent onions from sticking and burning.
- Don’t forget about your tagliatelle. Get some water boiling in a pan so you can cook as instructed on the packet to ensure everything is ready at the same time.

- Reintroduce chicken and chorizo and cook for a further 2 minutes.
