Time 16m

Yield 2 , 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 2

150 g chorizo sausage
150 ml red wine

Steps:

  • Simply cut the chorizo sausage into 1cm discs, put it in a small saucepan, pour over just enough wine to cover & put the lid on. Bring to the boil & simmer for 10 minutes, then remove from the heat, cool, leave for 24 hours them simply re-heat.
  • You can also make this much healthier by removing the orange fat from the chorizo before you re-heat.
  • I serve this with crusty garlic bread & other tapas - if you have any wine liquid remaining, it's a fab base for a tomato sauce for potatoes to go with your tapas.
  • Enjoy - this really is so simple, yet so tasty!

CHORIZO IN RED WINE



Chorizo in Red Wine image

A classic tapa that's challenging only to the extent that it's hard to find good chorizo; it should not be too well dried but rather fresh and soft. Plenty is being made in the States now, especially in Florida, California, and New York-the major centers of Latin cuisine. Since chorizo is so intensely flavored already, it takes few ingredients to make this dish, but it's still pretty powerful. In northwestern Spain they make this with the local sidra Asturiana, or hard cider; to try it that way, omit the garlic and parsley and substitute hard cider (English, French, or American hard cider is fine) for the red wine.

Yield makes 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pound dried chorizo, thinly sliced
1 cup dry red wine
2 tablespoons minced garlic
Salt and black pepper to taste
Chopped fresh parsley leaves for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F. Put the chorizo in an ovenproof skillet and turn the heat to high. Cook, stirring occasionally, until it is nicely browned, about 10 minutes, adjusting the heat as necessary to avoid burning the meat.
  • Stir in the wine and garlic and transfer the skillet to the oven. Cook, more or less undisturbed, until about half the liquid has evaporated and what's left is dark and thick, 10 to 15 minutes. Taste and add salt and pepper if necessary. Garnish with parsley and serve very hot, with toothpicks or pieces of bread. Or prepare the dish an hour or two ahead and reheat it.
