Turkey Chorizo, Revised image

Revised version of 'Janelle's Turkey Chorizo (Loose, Not Encased).' I have adjusted the spices and method to suit my tastes. My friends who eat chorizo often have told me the end result is very good and close to an original recipe.

This dish was easy to make and very flavorful. I used a rotisserie chicken instead of ground turkey, and it turned out great.
