How to make?
Ingredients
1 small onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound butternut squash, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch cubes
3 ounces chorizo sausage, diced
1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
Directions
Heat 1-1/2 Tbs. of the oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the chorizo, and cook, stirring often, for 1 minute. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the chorizo to a small heatproof bowl, leaving the fat in the skillet. Add the squash and paprika to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Meanwhile, spread out the chickpeas on a cutting board, and smash lightly with the bottom of a mixing bowl or pot. Add the sherry vinegar, 1/2 tsp. salt, the chickpeas, and the reserved chorizo to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until warmed through, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a platter, season to taste with more salt, drizzle with the remaining 1 Tbs. oil, and serve.
