Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lb Mexican chorizo sausages (sliced 1 inch thick)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
⅔ cup red wine (I used Cavit)
⅓ cup honey
A pinch of each: smoked paprika and black pepper

Steps:

Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and saute, stirring a few times, until the chorizo browns on both sides, about 5 minutes.
Add the garlic, red wine, honey, and a pinch of smoked paprika and black pepper to the pan. Bring the pan to a boil and continue to boil until the liquid reduces to a glaze thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 3-5 minutes. Don't reduce it too much as it will thicken as it cools.
Serve with toothpicks for easy nibbling.

1 (7.9 ounce) package of Spanish chorizo, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
1 clove garlic, finely minced

Skewer one shrimp and one round of chorizo onto wooden toothpicks or skewers. Repeat with the remaining shrimp and chorizo.
