How to Make Chorizo Gravy Or Sauce

  1. In a medium saucepan, heat 2 cups of milk over very low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching.
  2. Maintain low heat; do not let the milk boil.
  3. In a large skillet, melt 4 tablespoons of butter/margarine over medium-high heat. Add 1 pound of chorizo sausage.
  4. Crumble the chorizo and cook, stirring frequently, until well-browned and no longer pink (approximately 8-10 minutes).
  5. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour over the sausage. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1-2 minutes to create a roux.
  6. Gradually whisk in the warm milk (from step 2) all at once. Continue cooking, stirring constantly, until the gravy thickens and becomes bubbly (about 5-7 minutes).
  7. Reduce heat to low. Stir in 1 teaspoon of paprika and season generously with salt and pepper to taste. Continue to stir and taste until the flavor is to your liking.
  8. Turn off the heat. The gravy will continue to thicken as it cools.
  9. Serve immediately over your favorite dish – biscuits, pork, chicken, fish, or mashed potatoes!
