Method

  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high. Fry the chorizo slices in a 20cm (8in) heavy-based, ovenproof frying pan until golden, remove with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper.
  2. Add the onion and pepper and fry for 4 minutes or until softened. Drain any excess oil but leave the peppers and onions in the pan. Return the chorizo to the pan and pour over the beaten eggs. Scatter over the olives and feta and put over a low heat and cook for 10 minutes.
  3. Put the pan under the grill for 3 minutes or until just set.
  4. Leave to cool in the frying pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a plate, scatter with parsley and cut into wedges. Serve with a large green salad.
