Our Chopped Dinner Challenge this week was chorizo. We decided to give the basic sloppy joe a Mexican spin using chorizo instead of ground beef, but keep the sloppiness that everyone loves. Chopped Basket Ingredient: chorizo

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 1/2 pounds fresh Mexican chorizo, casings removed
