Ingredients
- 3 ½ oz fresh chorizo or semi-curado (see below and more detail above)
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- ½ cup red wine (eg Rioja/tempranillo)
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 clove garlic peeled but left whole
- 1 teaspoon parsley chopped, approx, to serve
Instructions
- Cut the chorizo into even slices (around ¼in/3mm thick or a little more).
- Warm the oil in a small skillet/frying pan over a medium heat and add the slices of chorizo in a single layer. Cook for around 3-4 minutes until starting to crisp then turn over.
- Cook for a couple minutes on the other side then add the wine to the pan. Tuck the bay leaf and whole, peeled garlic clove in between or under the chorizo slices.
- Once the wine comes to the boil, reduce the heat slightly and simmer for around 15-20 minutes until the wine has reduced by about half and become slightly more syrup-like. Remove from the heat and serve either in the skillet or a terracotta dish, topped with a little chopped parsley.
Notes
- If possible, use the softer fresh cooking chorizo or semi-curado, for this, but in sausage links rather than loose meat. You can use the sweeter or spicy chorizo, to taste.
- If you have gas, you can also cook the dish in a medium-small terracotta cazuela dish.
- For a larger portion, simply increase the chorizo and wine quantities equally - you probably don't need additional bay or garlic until more than doubling.
