Chorizo meal ideas...

[thisgirlrides]

I do a lovely chorizo pasta dish & nigella' chicken traybake but have got chorizo to use up & don't fancy either of these - any suggestions? Preferably no mushrooms or peppers

I do a twist on a carbonara using chorizo, it's really lovely.

What about a risotto? Or Spanish rice dish- I cooked it up with white wine, chicken and chorizo. It's sort of like a very moist paella- I got it off BBC good food recipes.

Chorizo and spinach in scrambled eggs.

I used a Jamie Oliver one last week. It was Smoky salmon and chorizo from his latest book, I think it might be called '5 ingredients'

It was so quick and delicious

Roasted with cod and cherry tomatoes.

It makes a nice frittata. Fry off onions and chorizo together then add eggs, cook until the bottom is firm then sprinkle on some cheese and finish under the grill.

Pop some in a frittata?

Paella?

I had a chorizo and pork burger once, was delicious 😋

Ahh of course Spanish paella type dish - perfect and I've had some calamari sat in the freezer waiting to be used so can chuck those in too. Thanks.

My chorizo pasta is like a carbona too - one of my favourite comfort food meals

Prawn & chorizo risotto.
Make a tear & share bread with cubed chorizo, thyme & parmesan - would be nice with tomato or lentil soup.
This chickpea & chorizo recipe to fill flatbreads, unbelievably cheap to make.

Chorizo and chickpea soup.
Sweat onion, garlic, sliced carrot and celery, add chicken stock, paprika, chickpeas. Fry off chorizo and add to pan. I sometimes add chicken too depending on hungry teens! Simmer until veg done then put baby spinach into bowls and pour hot soup over. Serve with crusty bread.

Chuck it in a chilli

This is lovely.I make it a lot.

Nigella also has a 'choc chip chilli' which has chorizo in as well as beef and is delicious

Really speedy pasta bake. Cook gnocchi. Fry chopped chorizo in a dry pan, add onion, garlic and chopped tomatoes. Stir through spinach. Add to cooked gnocchi, top with mozzarella and breadcrumbs.

Macaroni cheese with chorizo is bloody lovely.

@reallybadidea sounds lush might swop my usual pancetta for chorizo next time I make it

You're welcome.

I would roast a butternut squash with some paprika. Add the chorizo towards the end then chuck the lot into a risotto.

Jambalaya. It is fucking amazing and imo tastes even better next day if you keep some back for lunch.

Egg fried rice with chorizo is ace.

Also huevos rancheros with fried chorizo bits sprinkled on top
