1
Prepare the Ingredients
Wash the fresh figs and cut them in half. Slice the chorizo into thin rounds. Peel the daikon radish and slice it into thin matchsticks.
2
Prepare the Salad Base
In a large mixing bowl, combine the arugula and daikon radish matchsticks. Set aside.

3
Cook the Chorizo
In a skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the chorizo slices and cook until crisp, about 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
4
Add Figs
Once the chorizo is crisp, add the halved figs to the skillet. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the figs are warmed through.
5
Make the Sauce
In a small bowl, mix together the Sriracha, honey, salt, and black pepper. Drizzle over the chorizo and figs in the skillet, stirring to combine and coat evenly.

6
Combine and Serve
Pour the chorizo and fig mixture over the arugula and daikon salad. Toss gently to combine. Serve immediately while warm, drizzled with extra honey or Sriracha if desired.
