Ingredients
- 1 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 1 lb Spanish-style chorizo sausages sliced 1 inch thick
- 2 2 cloves garlic minced
- ⅔ ⅔ cup red wine
- ⅓ ⅓ cup honey
- 1 1 pinch Each: smoked paprika and black pepper
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and saute, stirring a few times, until the chorizo browns on both sides, about 5 minutes.
- Add the garlic, red wine, honey, and a pinch of smoked paprika and black pepper to the pan. Bring the pan to a boil and continue to boil until the liquid reduces to a glaze thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 3-5 minutes. Don't reduce it too much as it will thicken as it cools.
- Serve with toothpicks for easy nibbling.
