Fried Chickpeas and Chorizo

Submitted by:

Description

Hold on to your sombreros! This meal will send you reeling (to the couch for a nice comfort nap after consuming). Crispy chickpeas soaking up the beautful red chorizo juice - a visual and an aroma that cannot be beat. A great meal for any time of day.

Preparation

Warm about 1/4 cup of olive oil in a pan, and once heated, toss in your chickpeas and your chorizo. Give it an additional mixing, but beyond that, you don't want to stir too much. Just occasionally. The chroizo fat will slowly consume the chickpeas, which will turn a gorgoeus regal red and brown. Let cook for about 15 minutes. The chickpeas should turn nice and crispy. I gave it an additional few minutes of cook time, but 15 would have been just fine also.

Remove the chickpeas and chorizo from the pan and leave aside in a bowl. Add a little more olive oil to the pan and toss in the spinach leaves. Turn and stir regularly as they will cook down quite fast.

Cook it in the broiler for about 5-8 minutes, depending on your broiler. Serve immediately.
