Ingredients

1¼ kg chicken thighs and drumsticks (approx. weight, we used a 1.23kg mixed pack)
1 tbsp olive oil
2 onions, sliced
1 garlic clove, crushed
2 red chillies, deseeded and chopped
250g frozen peppers, defrosted
400g can chopped tomatoes
420g can kidney beans in chilli sauce
2 x 400g cans butter beans, drained
400ml hot chicken stock
small bunch coriander, chopped
150ml pot soured cream and crusty bread, to serve

Steps:

Pull the skin off the chicken and discard. Heat the oil in a large casserole dish, brown the chicken all over, then remove with a slotted spoon. Tip in the onions, garlic and chillies, then fry for 5 mins until starting to soften and turn golden.
Add the peppers, tomatoes, beans and hot stock. Put the chicken back on top, half-cover with a pan lid and cook for 50 mins, until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
Stir through the coriander and serve with soured cream and crusty bread.
