Chorizo with caramelized onions

Check your local butcher for fresh, quality chorizo and opt for organic yellow onions and high quality olive oil. This is a simple, but big-flavored dish, and so all of the components need to be on their “A” game for it to work well.

When it does, the taste reward is well worth the effort and you’ll want to use a piece of crusty bread to sop up every last bit of sauce from the pan.

Ingredients:

• 1 tbsp olive oil

• 1 onion, thinly sliced

• Two 10oz links of cooking chorizo, cut into bite-size chunks

• Handful chopped parsley (optional for garnish)

• Crusty bread for dipping

Method

1. Add olive oil to the pan and heat over medium low heat until a drop of water sizzles. Add onion and sautee until deep brown and caramelized

2. Add the chorizo and cook until all sides are browned and the inside has cooked through

3. Sprinkle with parsley if desired and serve with bread
