Garbanzos Con Chorizo Chickpeas With Chorizo Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a heavy bottomed skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened but not browned.
• Stir in chorizo and continue cooking until heated through.
• Tip the mixture into a bowl and stir in the chickpeas and peppers.
• Splash with sherry vinegar and season with salt and pepper.
• Serve hot or at room temperature in individual cazuelas, sprinkled with parsley, with plenty of crusty bread.
• Cooks note:.
• I also added a splash of EVOO.

Steps:

• Put garbanzo beans into a large container; add enough cool water to cover by several inches. Soak beans 8 hours to overnight. Drain and rinse before using.
• Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Halve both the red bell pepper and green bell pepper from top to bottom. Remove and discard the stem, seeds, and ribs. Arrange pepper halves with cut sides down onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Roast peppers under the preheated broiler until their skins have blackened and blistered, 5 to 8 minutes; transfer to a bowl and tightly seal bowl with plastic wrap to steam the peppers as they cool until the skins are loosened, about 20 minutes. Remove and discard skins. Slice peppers.
• Heat canola oil in a pot over medium heat. Cook and stir potatoes in hot oil until browned, about 10 minutes; add chorizo and continue to cook and stir until chorizo is hot, 3 to 5 minutes more. Stir peppers, onion, garlic cloves, paprika, and salt into the potato mixture; cook, stirring infrequently, until the onion softens, about 10 minutes more.
• Stir soaked garbanzo beans into the mixture. Pour sherry over everything. Bring the mixture to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low, place a cover on the pot, and cook at a simmer until the beans are tender, 10 to 15 minutes.

Steps:

• In a large saute pan, heat olive oil and saute onion until golden.
• Add sliced chorizo and cook, stirring frequently to release the flavors, for approximately 1 minute.
• Add the beans and cook another 5 minutes.
• Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Heat the broiler.
• Put three tablespoons of the oil in a skillet large enough to hold chickpeas in one layer over medium-high heat. When it's hot, add chickpeas and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, shaking the pan occasionally, until chickpeas begin to brown, about 10 minutes, then add chorizo. Continue cooking for another 5 to 8 minutes or until chickpeas are crisp; use a slotted spoon to remove chickpeas and chorizo from pan and set aside.
• Add the remainder of the 1/4 cup of oil to the pan; when it's hot, add spinach and sherry, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and cook spinach over medium-low heat until very soft and the liquid has evaporated. Add chickpeas and chorizo back to the pan and toss quickly to combine; top with bread crumbs, drizzle with a bit more oil and run pan under the broiler to lightly brown the top. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pot or saucepan over medium heat. Add the chorizo and saute until the meat is lightly browned. Take the meat out and reserve it on a plate.
• Add the onion, garlic, red pepper flakes, paprika, and bay leaves to the pan and cook until the onion begins to brown, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in the tomato paste and cook for another few minutes, until it evenly coats the onions and garlic.
• Add the potatoes, broth, and water, and simmer the vegetables until the potatoes are just tender. This might take up to 30 minutes, depending on how large your chunks are.
• Add the garbanzos and cook for another 5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
• Just before you're ready to serve, remove the bay leaves, stir in the reserved chorizo and the spinach and cook until the spinach wilts.
