Easy Homemade Chorizo
Whip up this incredibly flavorful and easy homemade chorizo! Perfect for tacos, eggs, or any dish that needs a spicy kick.
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Paprika
- 1 1/2 tablespoons Chili Powder
- 2 teaspoons Cumin
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Dried Oregano
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Dried Coriander
- 1 teaspoon Sea Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1 1/2 pounds Ground Pork (or ground beef, chicken, or turkey)
- 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
- 1 small Onion thinly sliced
- 3 cloves Garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon White Vinegar
Instructions
- First, in a small bowl, whisk together your paprika, chili powder, cumin, oregano, coriander, salt, and cinnamon. This is your flavorful spice blend!
- Next, place your ground pork (or chosen meat) in a large bowl. Add the prepared spice mixture and gently mix by hand until everything is just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep it tender.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until it shimmers. Add the minced garlic and thinly sliced onions, cooking for about 5 minutes until the garlic is wonderfully fragrant and the onions turn soft and translucent.
- Now, add the seasoned pork mixture to the skillet and increase the heat to medium-high. Cook for 7-10 minutes, breaking the meat apart with a spatula until it's fully cooked through and beautifully browned.
- Finally, stir in the white vinegar to brighten the flavors. Taste and add a pinch more salt if you like, then serve warm!
