Roast Pepper Chorizo Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Rub the peppers with 1 tbsp of the oil, then roast in the oven with the 6 unpeeled garlic cloves for 40-45 mins until soft. Put the peppers in a bowl, cover with cling film and leave to steam for 10 mins until cool enough to handle. Remove the stalks and seeds from the peppers, peel and discard the skin.
• Put 4 peppers and the garlic in a container and chill for tomorrow's dinner (if you have different coloured peppers, then keep 4 red ones for tomorrow), and tear the remaining peppers into chunks.
• Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan. Fry the chorizo for a couple of mins until the oils start to leak into the pan. Stir in the sliced garlic and the paprika, cook for 1 min, then add the chickpeas and cook for a further 3-4 mins. Splash in the vinegar and add the torn peppers. Remove from the heat and season.
• Poach the eggs. Toss the rocket with the chickpea mix and divide between 4 plates. Top each with a poached egg and serve with crusty bread, if you like.

Steps:

• Cut the chorizo into 3cm thick slices. Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a high heat. Cook the chorizo for 4-5 minutes, turning occasionally until the edges start to crisp and it has released its red oil.
• Tip the chickpeas into the pan and cook for a couple of minutes until hot. Add the peppers and cook for a few minutes until everything's juicy. Remove from the heat, stir in the coriander, ladle into two bowls and top each with a spoonful of yogurt.

Steps:

• In a large frying pan, dry-fry the chorizo until golden for about 10 mins, then use a slotted spoon to scoop it from the pan and set aside.
• Add the onion and peppers to the pan and soften in the chorizo fat for 10 mins. Stir in the chickpeas and tomatoes, warming through.
• Pour in the red wine vinegar and season. Serve in bowls with handfuls of rocket on top.

Steps:

• Heat a frying pan and dry fry the chorizo for 2-3 minutes until golden.
• Add the peppers and olives and cook for another 2 minutes until hot.
• Remove from the heat and keep warm.
• Mix the salad leaves and then divide the mixture between 4 plates.
• Half fill a large, clean frying pan with water and bring just to a boil.
• Lower the heat to a simmer and break in the eggs, one at a time.
• Increase the heat to bring the water back to a gentle simmer and cook for 3 minutes.
• Lift each egg out carefully with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towel.
• Carefully place the eggs on top of the salad and arrange the chorizo mixture around the edge.
• Drizzle over a little of the oil from the frying pan as well as the balsamic vinegar.
• Season and serve with crusty bread.

Steps:

• Heat grill to high. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook for 7-9 mins, until it is cooked through and has released its oil. Take chorizo out of the pan with a slotted spoon and set aside. Reduce heat, whisk in vinegar, then remove pan from heat.
• Put the pepper on a baking sheet, cut-side down then grill for 3-4 mins, or until the skin blisters and starts to turn black. Put the pepper in a bowl and cover with cling film. Once it is cool, peel off the skin, remove the seeds and then tear the pepper into strips.
• Cook peas and broad beans in boiling salted water for 1-2 mins, then tip into a big bowl of ice cold water to keep their bright green colour. Drain and set aside.
• Heat a griddle pan until hot. Brush the courgettes with a little bit of olive oil, then cook on both sides for 1-2 mins until just tender but not soft.
• Add the butter beans and rest of the ingredients to the pan with the dressing. Add the lemon juice and seasoning and gently toss everything together.
