How we came up with this recipe
Putting chicken and chorizo together work so well together ALWAYS.
The smoky flavours from the chorizo make it not only delicious but succulent.
As with all my air fryer traybakes, this is designed with simplicity in mind. No need for switching on the oven or hob at the same time.
Just serve up with something simple like a microwave rice, pittas or crusty bread and you’re good to go.
Air Fryer Spanish Chicken Ingredients
- Chicken breast – Dice about 4 chicken breasts, skinless and boneless
- Chorizo – The kind you buy in a ring, cut into slices
- Veggies – This works really well with peppers and I like red and yellow for their fresh sweetness
- Olives – I love to add green pitted olives, drained
- Spice – Just 2 teaspoons of sweet smoked makes such a difference to the flavour

Substitutions
- To make vegetarian – You can swap the chicken for a vegetarian/vegan protein option too, adjust your cook times as required

Top tipS
My air fryer
The one in these photos is a Russell Hobbs XXL one.
I’ve tested 3 air fryers now, and while I’m not saying that this one is THE BEST EVER, I’m really happy with it. It’s easy to fit in the dishwasher, not too expensive and has a basket large enough for 4 people.
Timing
I cook this in my air fryer for 25 minutes initially, but the exact number of minutes it takes will depend on your machine, the size of your chicken chunks and whether you’re using breast or thigh meat.
Check it after 20 minutes.
