Instructions
- Place the potatoes in a medium-sized pot and fill it with water. Bring it to a boil and continue to boil for 7-8 minutes, or until the potatoes can be pierced with a toothpick but are still a little firm. Drain the water and chop the potatoes.
- While the potatoes are cooking, make the rest of the breakfast. Roughly chop 1 cup of the Gordal Olives from Spain. Keep the other half whole.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large, non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook just until it begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Remove it from the pan. (see notes)
- Add the remaining tablespoon of oil and the potatoes to the pan. Let them cook, undisturbed, until they brown on one side, about 6 minutes. Toss and continue to cook them until they are golden all around, reducing the heat if necessary.
- Once the potatoes are brown, add the cooked chorizo, whole and chopped Gordal Olives from Spain, the onion, garlic, roasted red peppers, and paprika. Mix everything together and let it cook until the onion starts to soften, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the parsley and serve.
Notes
- White or red skinned potatoes work best in this recipe.
- If you're using uncooked chorizo, remove it from the casing first and make sure to thoroughly cook it before removing it from the pan.
