The ultimate winter warmer!

The first time I made a version of this yummy stew, I posted it on the daily menu thread on the Weight Watchers message boards. One of my lovely 'virtual' WW friends (you know who you are Louise) contacted me with great concern, worried that I didn't realise chorizo sausage is actually made of (shhh, whisper it quietly) pork... Of course, what I'd actually used was a kosher beef 'chorizo' - there are 2 on the market, one made by Gilberts and one by another brand whose name now escapes me. So now whenever I post this as my dinner on the menu thread, I make sure to refer to it as 'kosher chorizo'!

INGREDIENTS (this is the quantity I use for five people, but I make mine in a separate container, sans potatoes, so I can be totally sure of how much chicken and chorizo I'm eating... I've given my quantities in brackets where relevant - my portion comes to 6pp).

600g chicken breast cut into cubes (140g)
1 packet of kosher chorizo sausage - roughly chop each piece (25g)
1 tin chick peas, drained (35g)
2 tins chopped tomatos
1 carton passata
3 cloves garlic
1 red pepper
1 green pepper
2 large white onions
2 red onions
2 small courgettes
2 large potatoes
500g cubed swede
2 tablespoons chicken stock
Salt and pepper to taste
Sprinkling of chili flakes

Chop the vegetables roughly and add to an oven proof dish with all the remaining ingredients. Mix well and bake, covered, for 1 hour 45 minutes.

Not a piggy in sight :-)
