Chick Peas and Chorizo
Serves 20 as Amuseor 10 as Appetizer.

Inspired by a dish we tasted at Ole Ole Food Warehouse. I made this for the NJ Potluck. You can, of course, use dried chickpeas, but it really isn't necessary as you want a very soft texture to the beans.

  • 2 T Olive Oil
  • 1 Onion, quartered and sliced
  • 2 Garlic Cloves, peeled and sliced
  • 8 oz Spanish Chorizo, diced
  • 45 oz Chick Peas (3 15 oz cans), drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 tsp Spanish Sweet Paprika
In a large skillet, heat olive oil. Add onions and cook over medium heat until wilted, about 5-10 minutes. Add garlic, continue sauteing until the onions barely begin to brown on the edges, another 5 minutes. Add Chorizo, cook slowly until the pieces begin to render their fat and are tender, 5-10 minutes. Add the chickpeas and stir to combine all ingredients and heat through, about 5 minutes.
