  • 6 boneless chicken thighs, skinless, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 3 tbsp of olive oil
  • 1 pinch of ground cinnamon
  • 1 red pepper, deseeded and cut into 1cm strips

Method

  • Step 1

    Heat 1tbsp oil in a pan over a medium heat. Cook the onion until soft and starting to turn brown.

  • Step 2

    Lightly season the chicken, while the rest of the olive oil heats in the pan. Add the chicken and brown all over, before removing.

  • Step 3

    Now add the garlic to the pan and cook for 2-3 mins, until golden brown. Follow with the cinnamon, pepper strips and chilli, then cook for 2 mins.

  • Step 4

    Pour in the sherry and return the chicken to the pan, covering with a lid. Simmer for 10 mins, stirring occasionally. Remove the lid and cook for another 10 mins until the sauce thickens. Serve with bread to dip in the sauce.
