How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Put the cut-up chicken in a large bowl. Add the oregano, pepper, paprika, salt, and 2 tablespoons of the oil. Toss to coat the chicken evenly. Heat a large nonstick frying pan and brown the chicken over medium high heat.
|
2. Heat a large stove-top casserole. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and saute the garlic, salt pork, and ham a few minutes. Add the onion and pepper, and saute for 5 minutes over medium heat.
|
3. Add the tomato, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes until the tomato collapses. Add the browned chicken and chorizo, and simmer over low heat for another 10 minutes.
|
4. Add the stuffed olives, capers, annatto oil, rice, and water, then cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Add the frozen peas, cover, and simmer for 5 minutes more. Add salt and pepper.
|
5. Serve right away. This dish should be a little bit soupy and the rice tender.
