Chef Way Garces' recipe found in "Chef Recipes Made Easy" Food & Wine Magazine, August 2006 edition shows us how to use these wonderful pitas in place of the coca dough he would normally use. He also cooks dried garbanzos for the bean puree - we chose a good-quality prepared hummus, fresh shrimp and spicy slices of Spanish chorizo! Serve with a spicy, medium-bodied Tempranillo: 2001 Bodegas Montecillo Crianza. These were great when we made them when we had our mock-elections here at the home, they were very tasty.

SPANISH SHRIMP WITH CHORIZO



Spanish Shrimp With Chorizo image

When visiting my family in Spain, I was served a dish similar to this in a Tapa's bar. I have tried to recreate the flavors at home and have come up with this quick recipe. You may serve this over hot cooked rice, or as they did in the Tapa's bar, with a hot crusty bread to mop up the delish sauce!

Shrimp and Chorizo Sandwich image

This is an easy version of a Shrimp and Chorizo with Aioli Sandwich. I like combinations that can be served with rice or potatoes or a salad for my DH, but which I can take as a sandwich to work, since I work evenings. This comes from Yahoo! Shine.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb small shrimp or 1 lb medium shrimp, peeled
1/2 cup spanish chorizo, cut into 1/8-inch cubes
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
2 small green onions, thinly sliced
2 ounces baby arugula
4 ciabatta rolls or 4 kaiser rolls

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, bring heavily salted water to a boil; add shrimp and turn off heat.
  • After about 3 minutes check one shrimp, by cutting open, to see if it is cooked through; if so, drain and rinse shrimp - if not, let poach a few minutes more in the salted water.
  • Cut shrimp into 1/4 inch dice.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice and salt to make and aioli.
  • In a larger mixing bowl, combine the shrimp, chorizo, green onions, and half the aioli; taste and adjust seasoning (add more aioli if needed).
  • Slice the rolls, and fill with the shrimp salad; top with arugula, close sandwich and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your sandwich.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of bread. A crusty baguette, a soft brioche bun, or a hearty whole-wheat roll would all be great choices.
  • Be generous with the fillings. A good sandwich should be packed with flavor, so don't be shy with the shrimp, chorizo, and cheese.
  • Cook the shrimp and chorizo properly. Shrimp should be cooked until it is pink and opaque, while chorizo should be cooked until it is slightly crispy.
  • Assemble the sandwich carefully. Layer the fillings on the bread in a way that will create a balanced and delicious bite.
