This is a really tasty and hearty one pot dish that's super easy to make and a great way to use up any veg in the fridge. It's also great for weekly meal prep as it reheats well.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 smoked sausages, diced
- 500g chicken thighs, diced
- 1 red onion, diced
- 1/2 head garlic, crushed
- 1 head of fennel, diced
-
3 bull horn peppers, diced
- 2 zucchinis, diced
- 2 tins crushed tomatoes
- 2 tins beans of your choice
- 400g baby spinach
- salt, pepper, cumin and smoked paprika to taste
Directions
In a large pot or dutch oven on a high heat, add the oil and then the sausage. Then add the onions and garlic, and then the chicken and stir often so it doesn't catch. Try to keep the heat high because every time you add an ingredient the temp will drop.
- Start chopping the other veg and add it to the pot as they are ready.
Once all the meat and veg is in the pot, season with salt and pepper and add the spices, stir well.
- Next, add the tin tomatoes and mix well. Once that is simmering, add the beans and cover with a lid.
- Leave the pot to simmer for 10 minutes and then add the spinach and replace the lid. Let it simmer for another 2 minutes for the spinach to wilt.
- Give it one last stir and you're good to go! This also makes a great meal for your weekly meal prep because it reheats really well.

Recipe notes
This one is super easy! If you don't like sausage (or don’t have it) then leave it out or replace it with bacon. And same with all the other veg, feel free to leave out/replace/add to this one as you wish. It’s a great recipe to use up whatever veg you have at the bottom of the fridge. If your neighbour has a rosemary bush, pop some in! If you have 1/2 a bunch of basil hanging around chuck it in! You get the point.
This dish is all about building flavours and no faffing about, once an ingredient goes in the pot it stays there.
