Easy Chicken Pastel Recipe

In a large sauté pan over medium heat, heat oil then add butter. Once hot and melted, sauté chorizo until pieces start to brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside. Sauté onion until softened.

Add and cook chicken cubes in batches, letting the chicken sear until just browned before stirring. Lightly season chicken with salt and ground pepper. Remove chicken from the pan, transfer to the chorizo, and set aside. 

Add potatoes, carrots, and mushrooms. Cook until seared, stirring occasionally.

Dissolve cream of mushroom soup powder in water. Pour it into the pot with vegetables. Bring to a boil to thicken and then simmer until the vegetables are cooked through. Pour in evaporated milk, stirring until combined. Add chicken and chorizo back to the pot, and then simmer until chicken chunks are cooked through. Taste and season with salt and pepper to taste before serving.
