  • Brown Button Mushrooms
  • Fresh Rosemary
  • Fresh Thyme Leave

How to Make Chorizo Mushrooms

  1. Heat a large nonstick frying pan over medium heat. Add 1/2 pound chorizo sausage, sliced into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Cook, turning occasionally, for 5 minutes, or until golden brown and slightly crispy.
  2. Add 8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced, to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes, or until softened and lightly browned.
  3. Stir in 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped, and 1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme, finely chopped. Toss to combine and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  4. Transfer the chorizo and mushroom mixture to a warm serving bowl and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh parsley (optional).

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
