Chorizo Pasta recipe
You will see that preparing this recipe is no mystery at all. Simply cook a finely chopped onion in a frying pan with a drizzle of oil (use very little because the chorizo will release a lot of fat).
Cook the onion over medium-low heat. And, when it starts to become transparent, add the chorizo, finely chopped or cut into slices. As you prefer. Cook a little and add the tomato.
On the other hand, in the meantime, we are going to cook the pasta. Simply let it boil for the time indicated on the package until it is to our liking.
But, if you want to give it more flavor, add, before putting the water in the pot, a drizzle of oil, sauté a few cloves of garlic, over low heat and, when they are golden, add the water. Bring to the boil and add the pasta when it starts to boil. You will see how the garlic gives a spectacular touch to your pasta.
And finally, use the pasta you like the most: macaroni, spaghetti, ribbons… whatever you prefer.
