Made it exactly by directions but we felt it needed a little more flavor. I cooked the chorizo sausage according to package directions boiling it first in a small amount of water (Johnsonville brand) but they were really greasy. I removed the casings before adding to chicken. After it cooked I let it cool and removed some of the grease before serving. There's got to be a way to get more of the grease out. I'll keep watching to see if anyone has a solution. Thanks!

My family love chorizo & chicken, so I was on to a winner from the start with this. I didn't have brandy or sherry in the house, so I used white wine. The boiled potatoes to accompany was a good suggestion. I would probably have made rice to go with this dish, but I think the potatoes were better.

Delicious meal! I went light on the onion and added a handful of chopped green bell pepper. Didn't have any sherry but poured a bit of white wine in it instead. Even my non-chicken-eating boyfriend loved it! Thanks for a great recipe!

This was delicious and very healthy since I used chicken breasts and chicken Chorizo sausage. I followed the directions exactly (used Sherry and a Bay leaf or 2). The directions do not instruct to but I cut/shred the chicken into bite size pieces and added back to the pot to simmer for the last 30-45min.
