1/2 tablespoon paprika or smoked sweet paprika, half a palm full
Salt and pepper
1/4 pound chorizo, casing removed, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 small yellow onion, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped thyme leaves, 4 sprigs
1 (16-ounce) jar pequillo peppers or roasted red peppers, drained
1/2 cup flat-leaf parsley, a couple of generous handfuls
1/4 cup dry sherry or dry white wine, eyeball it
1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed, available ready-prepped in sacks at many markets
1 lemon
Marcona almonds or sliced almonds toasted in butter, your choice

Crusty bread, to pass at table
2 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 cups white rice
3 cups chicken stock
Handful flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
1 cup grated Manchego cheese
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high to high heat. Add extra-virgin olive oil, 2 turns of the pan. Season the chops with paprika, salt, and pepper. Place chops in skillet and sear meat to caramelize, about 2 minutes each side. Transfer the chops to a cookie sheet and place in the oven to finish off, 8 to 10 minutes, or until meat is firm to touch, but not tough. Remove from the oven and let the chops rest covered with a piece of aluminum foil for a few minutes.
  • While the chops are in the oven, return the skillet to the cook top over medium heat. Add the diced chorizo and cook stirring frequently for 2 minutes. Add the garlic, onion, thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook meat and onions for about 3 minutes.
  • Bring 1 to 2 inches of water to a boil in another skillet with a lid.
  • Grind the peppers and parsley in a food processor until smooth. Add the sherry or wine to the sausage and onions and stir, then stir in the ground peppers. Cook another minute or 2 or until the peppers are heated through.
  • Place green beans in boiling water. Salt it and cook 2 to 3 minutes. Drain and dress with a squeeze of lemon, a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil and salt and pepper.
  • Place a chop on each dinner plate and top with the chorizo-roasted pepper sauce. Serve with green beans, garnished with Marcona or toasted almonds, Cheesy Rice and/or crusty bread, for plate-mopping.
  • Melt butter over medium heat in a medium sauce pot. Add rice and toast in butter 2 minutes. Add stock and bring rice up to a boil. Cook rice 17 to 18 minutes until tender and liquids are absorbed. Remove from heat, fluff rice with fork, then stir in the parsley and cheese. Season the rice with salt and pepper, to taste.

SPICY PORK WITH CHORIZO



Spicy Pork With Chorizo image

Pork is a great favourite in our family and this dish is a good hearty meal, the addition of the chorizo makes it nice and spicy, you can serve this over rice, pasta or mashed potatoes, either way is just fine. You can slice your chorizo thin or have it a bit chunkier depending on how you like it. Since I made this for RSC I have made a few changes to the recipe and the method. I have used the invaluable reviews to make this recipe better in my opinion it was missing something, but I think it is a really good recipe now. Hope you like it.

SPICY CHORIZO PASTA



Spicy Chorizo Pasta image

Macaroni and chorizo is classic Spanish comfort food. While iterations abound, it typically starts by frying smoked chorizo with a little onion, adding canned or fresh tomato and maybe some oregano, then letting it simmer into a thick tomato sauce. It's often topped with cheese and baked like a mac and cheese. Instead of fresh tomatoes, this recipe uses highly concentrated tomato paste, which is made by cooking down tomatoes for ages so you don't have to. The paste fries in the chorizo's rendered drippings for a very fast, silky, smoky and spicy sauce. When shopping for this recipe, look for Spanish chorizo, a shelf-stable sausage usually found near salami and other cured meats in the grocery store. Mexican chorizo is sold fresh and is made with different chiles and spices.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

Kosher salt and black pepper
1 pound orecchiette or other short pasta
1/4 cup olive oil
4 ounces Spanish chorizo, casing removed (see Tip), if necessary, and thinly sliced
3 tablespoons double concentrate tomato paste (or 6 tablespoons canned tomato paste)
3 garlic cloves, peeled and smashed
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook, according to package directions, until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta cooking water, then drain the pasta.
  • Meanwhile, in a large Dutch oven, heat the olive oil and chorizo over medium-high. Cook, stirring occasionally, until chorizo is crisp and brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn off the heat and use a slotted spoon to transfer the chorizo to a plate.
  • Return the pot to medium heat and add the tomato paste and garlic. Cook, stirring, until the tomato paste is caramelized and a shade darker, 3 to 5 minutes, covering the pan if the splattering is wild. Add the red-pepper flakes and a few grinds of black pepper, then remove from heat.
  • Add the cooked pasta and 1/2 cup of the reserved pasta water to the tomato mixture. Return the pot to the medium-high heat, and stir vigorously until the pasta is well coated. Add more pasta water until the sauce is glossy. Stir in the chorizo and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork. For this recipe, a pork shoulder or butt roast is best. These cuts are well-marbled and will stay moist during the cooking process.
  • Don't be afraid to use a spicy chorizo. The spiciness of the chorizo will help to balance out the richness of the pork.
  • Cook the pork shoulder until it is fall-apart tender. This will take at least 2-3 hours, but it is worth the wait.
  • Serve the pork shoulder with your favorite sides. Some good options include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple green salad.
  • Leftover pork shoulder can be used in a variety of dishes. Try it in tacos, burritos, or enchiladas.

Conclusion:

This spicy pork with chorizo is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The pork shoulder is cooked until it is fall-apart tender and the chorizo adds a nice spicy kick. Serve this dish with your favorite sides and you have a meal that the whole family will enjoy.
