Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Start by finely chopping the onion, red bell pepper, and garlic cloves. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Crumble the Chorizo

    Remove the casings from the chorizo sausage and crumble it into small pieces.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the Chorizo

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the crumbled chorizo and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it is browned and cooked through.

    Sprinkle in the cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to the chorizo and vegetable mixture. Stir well to combine and cook for another 2 minutes.

Finishing Touches
