Spanish chicken pie
This hearty Spanish-inspired pie features a saucy chicken and vegetable base topped with creamy, paprika-infused mashed potatoes. The filling comes together quickly on the stovetop with tinned tomatoes, roasted peppers, and green olives, while the potatoes boil. Once assembled, it bakes until the topping is golden and the filling is bubbly, making for a comforting meal.

Prepare Potatoes
Preheat your oven to 200°C/fan 180°C/gas 6. Boil the potatoes for 15-20 minutes until they are tender when pierced with a fork. Drain them, return to the hot pan, then mash with some seasoning and 2 teaspoons of paprika. - 02
Cook Chicken Filling
Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large pan. Fry the sliced onions and minced garlic for a few minutes until they've softened. Stir in the remaining paprika for 1 minute, until it smells fragrant, then add the tinned tomatoes and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Tip this sauce into a large ovenproof dish, then stir in the chicken, roasted peppers, green olives, and a pinch of seasoning.
