PASTA WITH CHORIZO, CHICKPEAS AND KALE



Pasta With Chorizo, Chickpeas and Kale image

Packed with the intense flavors of garlic, paprika and salt, dried chorizo sets the flavor profile of this pasta. First, the chorizo sears in a skillet to render some of its fat and flavor, then chickpeas, scallions and kale soak up its spices. Salty Manchego cheese maintains the Spanish vibes, but Parmesan or pecorino work equally well. While eight ounces of pasta might not seem like a lot, meaty chickpeas and hearty kale complete the dish.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Kosher salt and black pepper
8 ounces fusilli or other short pasta
1/4 cup olive oil, plus more for drizzling
7 to 8 ounces dried chorizo, thinly sliced

1 bunch scallions (6 to 8), thinly sliced
1 bunch curly kale, collard greens or mustard greens, stems removed, leaves torn into bite-size pieces
Shaved Manchego, for serving

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente.
  • Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add chorizo and cook, stirring, until blistered and oil is bright orange, about 1 minute. Using a slotted spoon, transfer chorizo to a medium bowl.

  • Add kale to skillet, season with salt and pepper and cook, tossing, until wilted, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer pasta to skillet along with 1 cup pasta water and cook over medium-high, tossing with kale, until liquid reduces and coats the pasta, about 2 minutes.
  • Return chorizo, chickpeas and scallions to skillet and toss to combine. Drizzle with a little olive oil and top with Manchego to serve.

KALE STEW WITH CHORIZO



Kale Stew with Chorizo image

I made this up the other day because I wanted to make something with chorizo. In germany, kale mostly is made with smoked sausage, so I thought kale and chorizo would make a good match. You can add some more spices like allspice or cumin if you wish, but we liked it with just some smoked paprika, salt and pepper. I used medium...

SPICY CHORIZO AND RED LENTIL SOUP WITH KALE



Spicy Chorizo and Red Lentil Soup with Kale image

This recipe, adapted from "The Alaska from Scratch" Cookbook," by Maya Wilson, transforms a brothy lentil soup into a spicy, warming main dish with the addition of fresh Mexican-style chorizo and chopped kale. This simple winter dinner also features carrots, which grow unusually sweet in Alaska's summer light and temperatures, and are a root-cellar staple. Sweet or spicy Italian sausage works well as a substitute for the chorizo.

Tips:

  • Choose hearty greens: Kale, collard greens, or Swiss chard are all great choices for a hearty, nutritious stew.
  • Prep your greens: Wash and chop your greens before adding them to the stew. If using kale, remove the tough stems.
  • Sauté your vegetables: Sautéing the vegetables before adding them to the stew helps to develop their flavor and create a more complex dish.

  • Add some protein: Chorizo, sausage, or chicken are all great additions to a kale stew. If using meat, be sure to brown it before adding it to the stew.
  • Season to taste: Once the stew is finished cooking, season it to taste with salt, pepper, and other spices. You can also add a bit of lemon juice or vinegar for brightness.
