Full of Mediterranean flavours, this vegan One Pot Spanish Quorn Chicken & Rice makes the perfect midweek fuss free family dinner or casual entertaining.

Sprinkles of parsley and thyme add a delicious aroma. I’ll make no excuse for my obsession with smoked paprika. It has become a kitchen staple and I would be lost without. It’s essential here so do not even think about this dish without it.

This classic recipe is made vegan by using frozen Quorn Meat Free Vegan Fillets instead of chicken breast. You can find them in most supermarkets.

This is a very straightforward recipe, just keep an eye of it though and make sure you stir frequently though so that the rice does not stick to the bottom of the pan.
