Chorizo In Olive Oil
Spanish chorizo sausage has a deliciously pungent taste. Frying chorizo with onions and olive oil is one of the best ways of using it; you can also cook it on the barbecue, brushed with olive oil.
Ingredients
75ml/5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
350g/12oz chorizo sausage, sliced
1 large onion, thinly sliced
Flat leaf parsley, roughly chopped, to garnish
Details
Serves: 4
Method
1. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and fry the chorizo sausage over a high heat until beginning to colour. Remove from the pan with a slotted spoon.
2. Add the onion slices to the pan and fry until golden. Return the sausage slices to the pan to heat through for about 1 minute.
3. Tip the mixture into a shallow serving dish and scatter with the roughly chopped flat-leaf parsley. Serve the chorizo on its own or as a side dish, with warm crusty bread.
Variation:- Chorizo is usually available in large supermarkets and delicatessens, but any other similar spicy sausage can be used as a substitute.
