2-STEP POTATO-CHORIZO HORS D'OEUVRES
Steps:
- In a saucepan of actively boiling lightly salted water, blanch the potatoes for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the tines of a fork will just pierce the surface. Drain and, when cool enough to handle, cut them in half and score the cut side of each with the tines of a fork.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat.
- In a bowl, combine the potatoes with the olive oil, oregano, salt, and pepper and toss together until evenly coated. Transfer the potatoes to the hot skillet and spread them out into an even layer so they are hardly touching each other. Heat until sizzling, then transfer the skillet to the hot oven. Toast, turning over every 10 minutes, for about 30 minutes, until very crisp and golden.
- While the potatoes are roasting, heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons water. Cook the sausages for about 20 minutes, turning occasionally and pouring off the fat as it accumulates. Drain the sausages briefly on a double thickness of paper towels and slice them 3/4 thick.
- Place a slice of sausage on top of each roasted potato half and secure with a toothpick. Assemble the hors d'oeuvres on a platter and squeeze a little lime juice over them. Serve, accompanied by Avocado Salsa.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook, breaking up the clumps, until dry and crisp, about 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the chorizo to a paper lined plate to absorb any additional oil. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of fat from the pan and heat the pan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and boiled potatoes and saute until brown, about 12 minutes. Stir in the cooked chorizo and season with just a little salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve.
POTATO HORS D'OEUVRES (BAKED, NOT FRIED)
Learned to made these back in Home Ec, the early '50s. I find it easier to refrigerate the mixture for about a half hour before shaping into balls and a small cookie scoop makes quick work of shaping the mixture into balls.

ROASTED CHORIZO POTATOES
A quick and tasty side dish with a little kick. I served it with a Kielbasa that we tossed on the BBQ.

Add the bell pepper and toss together.
- Transfer to a 350 oven and finish the potatoes in the oven until tender. About 20-25 minutes.
