Cooking Steps

Cook orzo
1
  • Add 6 cups water and 1 tsp salt to a large pot (use same for 4 ppl). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Add orzo to the boiling water. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 10-12 min.
  • Drain and return orzo to the same pot, off heat.

 

Prep
2
  • Meanwhile, core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • Roughly chop spinach. (TIP: Place spinach in a bowl, then roughly chop using a pair of kitchen shears or scissors!)
Cook chorizo stew base
3
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then chorizo, onions, peppers and Tex-Mex paste. Cook, breaking up chorizo into smaller pieces, until no pink remains, 4-5 min.**
  • Add crushed tomatoes, chicken stock powder, 1 1/2 cups (2 1/2 cups) water, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar.
  • Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until veggies soften and broth thickens slightly, 1-2 min.
Finish stew
4
  • Add chorizo mixture, spinach and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter to pot with orzo. Stir until wilted, 1 min.
  • Remove from heat and cover with a lid to keep hot.
  • Carefully wipe the pan clean.
Make tortilla crumble (optional)
5
  • Reheat the same pan (from step 3) over medium-high.
  • Meanwhile, cut one corner of the tortilla chip bag to let the air out. Using your hands, crush chips in the bag to make 1/2-inch pieces.
  • When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then crushed tortillas. Cook, stirring often, until tortilla pieces are lightly toasted and 1-2 min. Remove from heat. (TIP: You can skip this step if you don't want to toast the tortillas!)
Finish and serve
6
  • Season stew with salt and pepper.
  • Divide stew between bowls.
  • Sprinkle tortilla crumble and feta over top.
