Preparation

Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C (350°F (175°C)) fan).
Deseed and slice the peppers, chop the onion and garlic, and halve the chorizo.

Cooking

Place anchovies, capers, peppers, onion, garlic, garlic granules, onion powder, smoked paprika, oregano, bay leaf, and plum tomatoes in an ovenproof slow-cooker bowl.
Season with salt and pepper, drizzle with olive oil, and roast for 20 mins until the vegetables begin to char.
Meanwhile, heat a dry frying pan over high heat and fry the chorizo halves until blackened and their oil is released.
Transfer the roasted vegetables to the slow-cooker, add the chorizo, red wine vinegar, and chicken stock.
Cover and cook on high for 2 hrs or on low for 4 hrs.

Plating & Serving

Serve the stew warm, either on its own with crusty bread or as a sauce over pasta.

Notes

For a deeper flavour, rub pork chops with the same seasoning and pan-roast them to serve alongside the stew.
