- Combine the flour and paprika in a large bowl, and then toss the chicken in the mixture to coat, shaking off the excess.

- Deglaze with the sherry, stirring and scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon.
- Stir in the stock, lemon and orange zests and tomatoes.
- Add the chourico and chicken back into the pot and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes.
- Ladle the stew into shallow bowls.
- Sprinkle with the parsley and serve with the rolls for mopping up the sauce.
