  • This recipe contains celery. We made it in a busy working kitchen so it may also contain traces of nuts and sesame. WARNING: Although we do our very best to take out all the bones, some may remain.

  • “Absolutely delicious. My husband loves chorizo and this dish certainly hit the spot. I will definitely be buying it again and looking at your other dishes.”

    “All the meals that we have purchased via Waitrose are SCRUMPTIOUS! We love prancing around the kitchen pretending we are cooking when in fact we are not and the grub is VASTLY better than anything my husband and I can produce with blood sweat and tears! THANK YOU!”

CREAMY BUTTER BEAN MASH AND GREEN SALAD

This dish goes amazingly well with our Catalan Chicken.

(Serves 2)

25g butter
2 tbsp olive oil
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 sprig of fresh rosemary
400g can of butter beans
1 small bag of green salad leaves
Some ready-prepared balsamic dressing

1. Melt the butter with the oil in a large pan, then add the garlic and rosemary and cook gently for 1 to 2 minutes.

2. Remove rosemary and add drained beans to pan to warm up on a low heat, stirring regularly. Squash with a potato masher or puree with a hand blender until almost smooth.

3. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve with a mixed salad drizzled with balsamic dressing and, of course, your freshly cooked Charlie Bigham's Catalan Chicken.
