BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH CHORIZO



Brussels Sprouts With Chorizo image

Beloved brussels sprouts, which have enough personality to stand up to forceful seasoning, are often paired with bacon or pancetta, and generously peppered. Here, flavorful Spanish chorizo and smoky pimentón complement and enhance the stalwart vegetable. They play beautifully together. Use fresh, soft chorizo, not the aged salami-like kind.

Categories     vegetables, side dish

Time 20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
8 ounces fresh, soft Spanish chorizo, chopped in 1/2-inch pieces
1 1/2 pounds brussels sprouts, trimmed and sliced 1/4-inch thick
Salt and pepper
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon pimentón (Spanish smoked paprika), picante (hot) or dulce (sweet)
2 tablespoons roughly chopped parsley

Steps:

  • In a wide skillet, warm olive oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add chorizo and let sizzle for a minute or so, until it releases some of its fat.
  • Mash chorizo with a wooden spoon, encouraging it to crumble. Cook, stirring, until slightly browned, about 2 minutes more. Use a slotted spoon to remove chorizo and set aside. Leave oil bubbling in skillet.
  • Add brussels sprouts to the skillet, and season generously with salt and pepper. Raise heat to high and cook, stirring, until sprouts are tender and lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Reduce heat if needed to prevent scorching.
  • Add garlic and pimentón and stir to coat. Return chorizo to pan and cook, stirring, 2 minutes more. Sprinkle with parsley and transfer to a serving dish. Serve hot.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh Brussels sprouts: Look for firm, deep green sprouts with tightly closed leaves. Avoid any with yellowing or wilted leaves.
  • Trim the Brussels sprouts: Cut off the stem end and remove any discolored or damaged leaves.
  • Slice the Brussels sprouts: For smaller sprouts, you can slice them in half. For larger sprouts, cut them into quarters or even smaller pieces.

  • Sauté the Brussels sprouts: In the same skillet, add the Brussels sprouts and cook over medium heat until they are tender and slightly browned. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add the chorizo and other ingredients: Once the Brussels sprouts are cooked, add the cooked chorizo, garlic, and almonds (if using). Stir to combine and cook for a few more minutes, until the garlic is fragrant and the almonds are toasted.
  • Serve immediately: Brussels sprouts are best served hot. Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro, if desired.
