  4. If necessary, use a very little of the wine to deglaze the casserole, then fry the onion and shallots for 2 minutes, only stirring to avoid sticking.
  5. Add the chilli, peppers, garlic and mushrooms and stir gently but thoroughly. Fry for a further 5 minutes or until the vegetables have softened, stirring occasionally. Stir in the paprika and any leftover seasoned flour and add the stock.
  6. Stir in the tomato purée and return the chicken pieces to the casserole. Pour in the wine and add the herbs/spices. Stir gently but thoroughly.
  7. Bring to the boil, cover and place in the pre-heated oven.
