1
Prepare the Vegetables
Slice the onions and tomatoes into thin slices. Set them aside for later use.
2
Make Chimichurri Sauce
If using homemade chimichurri, blend together fresh parsley, garlic, vinegar, olive oil, and spices to taste. If using store-bought, simply have it ready.

3
Cook the Chorizo
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium heat. Add the chorizo sausages and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are browned and cooked through.

4
Prepare the Bread
While the chorizo is cooking, slice the French bread or rolls lengthwise without cutting all the way through.
5
Assemble the Choripán
Once the chorizo is cooked, place one piece inside each bread roll. Top with sliced onions, tomatoes, and a generous drizzle of chimichurri sauce.
6
Garnish (Optional)
Add fresh cilantro on top if desired. Close the sandwich and serve immediately.
