1. Onion Sauté
In a large frying pan, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced Spanish onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the onion turns golden brown. Transfer the sautéed onion to the slow cooker.
2. Chicken and Chorizo Browning
Using the same frying pan, brown the chicken thighs and chorizo slices over medium heat until they start to color. You may need to do this in two batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Once browned, add the chicken and chorizo to the slow cooker.
3. Adding the Mediterranean Touch
To the slow cooker, add the chunked bell peppers and pitted Spanish olives.
4. Deglazing and Combining
Pour the dry white wine, chicken stock, and tomato purée into the frying pan used previously. Stir well to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan, then pour this flavorful liquid into the slow cooker.
5. Slow Cooking to Perfection
Cover the slow cooker and set it to cook on Low for 6 hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the chicken to become tender.
Select fresh, organic chicken, artisanal chorizo, and the best olives you can find for superior taste.
Allow the stew to cook low and slow, or even better, make it a day ahead for enhanced flavors.
Choose Spanish chorizo for its smoky flavor and slice it thickly to ensure its presence in every bite.
Sauté onions, garlic, and bell peppers until caramelized for a flavorful foundation.
Incorporate fresh herbs like rosemary and thyme and toast spices like smoked paprika to intensify their flavors.
