This rich and flavorful entrée is perfect served over hot rice. The combination of spicy sausage, chicken, tomatoes, artichoke hearts, and olives is both festive and bold and uses foods you can simply find at any grocery store. Easily made in your slow cooker, you don't have to do a thing once the food is in the appliance.

Chorizo is a Spanish is a fatty sausage, and very flavorful. Sauté the onions and garlic in the drippings left in the pan after you have browned the chorizo. They will turn a beautiful yellow-orange color and soak up the flavor of the sausages.

Serve this fabulous recipe over hot cooked brown rice. Pair it with a green salad tossed with feta cheese and some sliced porcini mushrooms, or our favorite pears and greens salad, along with a nice glass of Spanish or Portuguese red wine.
