Method

  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.

    Perhaps some grilled aubergines, or warm green beans in a vinagrette dressing?

    Loved it also... a bit less sherry would be even better though. We had a nice steamed broccoli as side dish. By the way... am I really the only (Belgian) guy on GF..? Thought that 'cook' was male...? ;-)

    Delicious. I added a few red chilli flakes. I'll be making it again, and I'll put a tad less red wine vinegar in. I know it depends on the type of potatoes you use, but I found that the timings were well short of what was needed to cook the potatoes through.
