Chickpeas with chorizo and apple juice

Ingredients

• 100 g Chorizo (cut into slices about 0.5 cm thick)
• 5 ml Olive oil (a drizzle to help grill the chorizo)
• 1/2 Red bell pepper (cut into strips)
• 1 Spring onion (use the white part and keep the green part for garnish)
• 400 g Cooked chickpeas (drained and rinsed)
• 200 ml Organic apple juice (reduce until syrupy consistency)
• 2 c. à soupe Flat-leaf parsley (chopped, for topping)
• to taste Black pepper (freshly ground)

Instructions

1. Brown the chorizo

   Heat the pan over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil then lay the chorizo slices. Grill for 3‑4 minutes, stirring to release the fat.

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: medium

2. Add the red bell pepper

   Add the red bell pepper strips to the pan. Stir so the pepper coats with the chorizo fat.

   Time: PT3M

   Temperature: medium

3. Sauté the onion

   Add the white part of the spring onion, sliced into rounds. Reserve a few green stalks for garnish. Sweat for 5 minutes until the liquid has evaporated.

4. Add the chickpeas

   Pour the drained chickpeas into the pan. Mix gently to avoid crushing them.

   Time: PT10M

   Temperature: medium‑low

6. Season and plate

   Lightly salt if needed, pepper generously. Sprinkle the chopped parsley and the reserved green onion stalks. Serve immediately.
