Ingredients

300g white basmati rice

1 tbsp sunflower oil, plus extra for brushing

1 large sweet potato, peeled, cut into 1cm cubes

4 spring onions, trimmed and sliced

400g can Good & Balanced Red Kidney Beans, well rinsed and drained

6 sun-dried tomatoes (from a jar), drained and roughly chopped

300g Asda frozen chicken breast fillets, de-frosted and cut into bite-sized pieces

1 red pepper, de-seeded and cut into 2 cm pieces

1 yellow pepper, de-seeded and cut into 2cm pieces

70g Chosen by you Chorizo, thinly sliced

Method

1
Pre-heat the grill. Put the rice in a sieve and rinse under cold running water. Put in a pan with 1.2L cold water and bring to the boil. Cover the pan and simmer for 10-12 minutes.
2
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a frying pan. Add the sweet potato and cook over a medium heat until tender, turning the pieces occasionally so they cook evenly. Add the spring onions and cook for 1 minute. Add the red kidney beans and sun-dried tomatoes and heat through.
3
Drain the rice and season. Stir the sweet potato and beans mixture into the rice. Set aside and keep warm.
4
Thread the chicken pieces, peppers and folded slices of chorizo on skewers, then lightly brush with oil. Cook under a pre-heated grill for 10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through. Serve with the rainbow rice.
