Spicy Chicken & Chorizo Pie with a Potato Top

After being disappointed today, as mates cancelled a meet up I decided to cheer myself up with a spicy chicken pie...




3 Cloves of Garlic, sliced
2 Small Onions, diced
1 Pepper, diced
1 Chorizo Sausage, sliced
500g Chicken (Thighs deboned are best)
1 Can Chopped Tomatoes
300ml Chicken Stock
1 Teaspoon chopped Basil
1 pinch dried Oregano
1 pinch Parprika
Dash of Hot Sauce (I used Dave's Gourmet Insanity Sauce)
4 or so Potatoes
Handful of Button Mushrooms
Salt & Pepper to season
Extra Virgin Olive Oil


  • Fry the garlic and onion for a few minutes then add the chorizo and cook till it starts to brown the sausage
  • Add the peppers and the chicken and cook till the chicken starts to golden
  • Add the everything else but the potatoes and simmer until the sauce reduces to a nice thick consistency
  • Preheat the oven to 180C
  • Slice the potatoes very thinly (Ideally with a mandolin) and par boil in salted water.
  • Pour the chicken filling into a oven proof dish and put a layer of the potato on top, sprinkle with seasoning and the olive oil, and repeat till you use all the potatoes.
  • Whack it in the oven for about 30 mins or until the topping is all crispy.
