How to Make Chorizo Sandwich Squares
- In a large bowl, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 tablespoon sugar.
- Gradually add 1 cup warm water (105-115°F), mixing until a shaggy dough forms.
- Add 1/2 cup more flour, or as needed, to form a firm, slightly sticky dough.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 6-8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a lightly greased large bowl, turning to coat. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 60 minutes, or until doubled in size.
- While the dough rises, cook 1 pound chorizo sausage in a large skillet over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Drain off excess grease.
- Add 1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper, 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper, 1/4 cup chopped onion, 2 jalapeños (minced, remove seeds for less heat), and 2 cloves minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring frequently, until softened.
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease an 8x10 inch baking pan.
- Punch down the risen dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface.
- Divide the dough in half. Roll out one half into a 9x11 inch rectangle.
- Gently press the dough into the prepared pan, allowing the dough to extend about 1 inch up the sides.
- Spoon the chorizo mixture evenly over the dough.
- Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese) over the chorizo.
- Roll out the remaining dough into an 8x10 inch rectangle.
- Place the second dough rectangle on top of the cheese layer and pinch the edges to seal.
- Cut several slits in the top layer to allow steam to escape.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Let cool slightly before cutting into squares and serving. Enjoy!
