Best 8 Chorizo Pepper Lasagne Recipes

CHORIZAGNA - MY MEXICAN CHORIZO LASAGNA

Steps:

• 1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
• 2. In a medium pan heat chorizo (if in casing remove casing - we only need the filling :D). Cook through and pour it into a dish to set to the side for now.
• 3. Chop onion, green pepper, and garlic. Heat oil in the pan. Add ingredients to the pan. Heat until slightly translucent.
• 4. Add sauce and chorizo to the pan with onion mixture. Keep on medium heat until heated through.
• 5. Break egg into a bowl. Add cottage cheese and mix.
• 6. Spray casserole dish with Pam/grease with butter/whatever you prefer (I like Pam). Layer some of the meat until it covers the bottom of the dish.
• 7. Sprinkle some cheese on top of the meat.
• 8. Drop spoonfuls of cottage cheese mixture next and spread. Then place the bake-ready lasagna strips over that (covering the cottage cheese). Finish this layering process and end with either meat or cottage cheese. Top with remaining cheese, salt, and pepper.
• 9. Pop in the oven and cook for 30-40 minutes. Check it - if it's bubbling, it's done. Let sit for about 10 minutes or more. Enjoy!

CHORIZO AND POLENTA LASAGNA

Steps:

• For the polenta: Bring the chicken stock to a boil in a large pot. Add the polenta and whisk until fully incorporated, 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle with the salt and cook, covered, over medium heat for 5 to 6 minutes. Finish by folding in the melted butter. Keep warm while you prepare the chorizo.
• For the chorizo: Coat a large saute pan with olive oil and set over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook until almost translucent, and then add the ground pork. Brown 4 to 5 minutes while breaking the pork pieces up with the back of a wooden spoon. Add the paprika, granulated garlic, onion powder, chili powder and cumin, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook 1 minute longer to toast the spices, and then add the vinegar, garlic and tomatoes. Simmer until the sauce is thickened and reduced, 8 to 10 minutes. Taste and season once more with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
• For assembly: Wash, drain and finely slice the chard. Heat the garlic and some olive oil in a large pan and saute, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Drain in a colander and squeeze out any excess moisture.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease an 8-by-8-by-2-inch gratin dish or an oval 9-inch cast-iron pan. Pour half of the polenta in and spread out evenly. Top with half of the chorizo and all of the Swiss chard. Sprinkle with half of each cheese. Repeat with a layer of the remaining polenta, then the remaining chorizo, and finally the remaining cheese. Cover with foil, place the dish on a sheet tray and bake 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until the cheese is golden and bubbly, 15 minutes longer. Let sit 25 minutes to set up, then cut into portions and serve.

MEATY LASAGNA RECIPE WITH CHORIZO

Steps:

• Carefully remove the cases around the chorizo. Dice the chorizo into small pieces.
• Cook the chorizo and lean ground beef into a large heavy bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Fry for 10 minutes until the beef is throughly cooked. Do not add oil into the saucepan, as the chorizo will release oil. Drain any excess oil.
• Add the garlic, chili peppers and fresh oregano leaves and cook for 2-3 minutes. Save some oregano to garnish lasagne before serving.
• To complete the meat sauce, add the canned Cherry Tomatoes, Passata, sugar, salt and pepper. Reduce heat, simmer for 10 minutes or until the liquids starts reducing.
• Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
• Mix the ricotta and the shaved Parmesan cheese in a bowl.
• Use a 13x9 inch baking dish to build your lasagna. Start with spreading 1 cup of your meat sauce across the base of the baking dish. Top with a layer of fresh lasagna sheets.
• Spoon half of the Ricotta mixture and spread evenly. Add another layer of lasagna sheets.
• Spoon half of the meat mixture and cover with another layer.Repeat with another layer of Ricotta and pasta, and then the meat again.
• Sprinkle with grated mozzarella and bake in the oven for 25 minutes. Garnish with fresh oregano leaves. Allow lasagne to rest for 10 minutes before serving.

CHIC CHORIZO AND PEPPERS OVER PASTA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and boil 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Add the chorizo and saute 2 to 3 minutes or until both sides are slightly brown and crisp around the edges. With a slotted spoon transfer sausages to a bowl and set aside. Add the onions, mushrooms and peppers to the remaining fat in the skillet and cook, stirring continuously until the onions and peppers are somewhat tender, about 3 minutes. Add the caraway seeds, water and cooked chorizo. Cover and simmer over low heat until peppers and onions are tender, about 5 to 7 minutes. Stir the mixture on occasion so that it does not scorch. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Drain the pasta and return it to the pot off heat. Add the chorizo mixture and sour cream and toss the ingredients together. Adjust seasoning and serve immediately garnished with parsley.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH CHORIZO LASAGNA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Heat olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. When hot, add the shallot and cook until slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Mix in the chopped garlic and cook for an additional minute, until fragrant. Add squash and water. Cover the pan and cook for about 15 to 20 minutes until squash has softened. Remove from heat; set aside.
• Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add flour and stir, cooking flour for about 1 minute. In a steady stream, pour in the milk and whisk vigorously until the bechamel sauce has thickened and is very smooth, about 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Ladle about 1 cup of the bechamel sauce into a blender. Add the squash in batches, and blend until very smooth, adding more bechamel sauce if more liquid is needed. Be sure to allow steam to escape as you process. This can also be done with an immersion blender.
• Pour the butternut squash bechamel sauce mixture back into the pot holding the remaining bechamel sauce; stir until combined. In a small skillet, cook the chorizo over medium heat, breaking it up into crumbles as it cooks. Set aside.
• To assemble the lasagna, ladle about 1/4 cup of butternut squash bechamel sauce into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Spread the sauce around evenly and top with 3 lasagna sheets, laying them side by side. Top with about 1/2 cup of the sauce, spreading it into one even layer. Then add a few spoonfuls of chorizo crumbles and a handful of Monterey Jack. Repeat the layering process a few more times until all but three lasagna sheets are used -- about 3 layers. Finally, top the lasagna with the last 3 lasagna sheets, a handful of Monterey Jack, and all of the Parmesan cheese.
• Cover the baking dish with Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil and bake for 15 minutes at 350 degrees F. Uncover and transfer the lasagna to the broiler, cooking about 5 minutes until the top is golden brown. Top with fresh cilantro. Slice and serve. Lasagna stays good in the refrigerator (and heats up nicely!) for up to 3 days.
