Ingredients
• 12 ounces chorizo, cut into coins and then halved
• 12 ounces ham, cut into cubes
• 2 tablespoons regular olive oil
• 2 (15-ounce) cans garbanzo beans (chickpeas)
• Salt and pepper
• Chopped fresh cilantro, to serve, optional
The Best Part Ingredients:
• 2 cups fresh cilantro chopped finely, firmly packed (about 2 bunches)
• 3-6 cloves of garlic
• 2 tablespoons chopped onion
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 1 tablespoon lime juice (optional)
• Kosher salt and red pepper flakes to taste
Warm the olive oil in a thick-bottomed skillet (I prefer a stir-fry) on a medium heat add chorizo and ham and sauté for 10 minutes. I like mine a little crispy so yours may take less time. Add the Garbanzo beans and cook for another 10 minutes. Don’t forget to add the cilantro paste. The garlic is not cooked so be prepared for a little bit.
