Method

  • step 1

    Heat a large lidded frying pan, then add the oil. Tip in the chorizo, fry for 2 mins until it starts to release its oils, then tip in the potatoes and some seasoning. Splash over 3 tbsp sherry, cover the pan tightly, then leave to cook for 10-15 mins until the potatoes are just tender. Move them around the pan a bit halfway through.

  • step 2

    Season the fish well. Give the potatoes another stir, add the cherry tomatoes and most of the chopped parsley to the pan, then lay the fish on top. Splash over 1 tbsp sherry, put the lid on again, then leave to cook for 5 mins, or until the fish has turned white and is flaky when prodded in the middle. Scatter the whole dish with a little more parsley and drizzle with more extra virgin oil. Serve straight away with crusty bread.

Superb tasty recipe. Used angel cut haddock fillets. Don’t chop the chorizo too small! Great midweek meal.

Made this for tea today and I am impressed, makes a nice tasty midweek meal. After reading some comments I made a few tweaks to the recipe. 1. Cooked the chorizo first for a few mins then removed from the pan and added back near the end. 2. Parboiled the potato slices for 2 mins before…

Very tasty dish will definitely make again, don’t overcook the chorizo like I did just don’t dice it to small.

Chorizio should be sliced

This is an OK recipe but it really needs tweaking. Firstly what's a "good handful" of cherry toms? My partner's hands are easily twice the size of mine so if he was making it we'd have double the amount of tomatoes in it as when I make it. Also 450g of potatoes to serve two is far too much, that's…
