Ingredients

200g chorizo
1 tbsp olive oil
410g can chickpea drained and rinsed
250g jar roasted mixed pepper drained and roughly chopped
handful coriander leaves, chopped
2 tbsp natural yogurt

Method

Slice the chorizo into pieces 3cm thick. Warm the olive oil in a large frying pan. Cook the chorizo for 4-5 minutes, turning it now and then, until it crisps at the edges and its red oil is released.
Add the drained chickpeas to the pan and cook them for a couple of minutes until heated through. Stir in the chopped roasted peppers and cook for a few minutes more until the mixture is juicy. Take the pan off the heat, mix through the chopped coriander leaves, divide between two bowls, and finish each with a tablespoon of natural yogurt.
