One-pot roast chicken with chorizo
The beauty of this recipe from Nathan Outlaw is that all the ingredients are cooked together in one pan. That is not to say this chicken recipe is a basic one: chorizo and chicken makes for an interesting pairing, while lemon provides sharpness and chilli packs a punch.
