Chorizo And Bacon Lasagne Recipes

MEATY LASAGNA RECIPE WITH CHORIZO

Steps:

• Carefully remove the cases around the chorizo. Dice the chorizo into small pieces.
• Cook the chorizo and lean ground beef into a large heavy bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Fry for 10 minutes until the beef is throughly cooked. Do not add oil into the saucepan, as the chorizo will release oil. Drain any excess oil.
• Add the garlic, chili peppers and fresh oregano leaves and cook for 2-3 minutes. Save some oregano to garnish lasagne before serving.
• To complete the meat sauce, add the canned Cherry Tomatoes, Passata, sugar, salt and pepper. Reduce heat, simmer for 10 minutes or until the liquids starts reducing.
• Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
• Mix the ricotta and the shaved Parmesan cheese in a bowl.
• Use a 13x9 inch baking dish to build your lasagna. Start with spreading 1 cup of your meat sauce across the base of the baking dish. Top with a layer of fresh lasagna sheets.
• Spoon half of the Ricotta mixture and spread evenly. Add another layer of lasagna sheets.
• Spoon half of the meat mixture and cover with another layer.Repeat with another layer of Ricotta and pasta, and then the meat again.
• Sprinkle with grated mozzarella and bake in the oven for 25 minutes. Garnish with fresh oregano leaves. Allow lasagne to rest for 10 minutes before serving.

CHORIZAGNA - MY MEXICAN CHORIZO LASAGNA

Steps:

• 1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
• 2. In a medium pan heat chorizo (if in casing remove casing - we only need the filling :D). Cook through and pour it into a dish to set to the side for now.
• 3. Chop onion, green pepper, and garlic. Heat oil in the pan. Add ingredients to the pan. Heat until slightly translucent.
• 4. Add sauce and chorizo to the pan with onion mixture. Keep on medium heat until heated through.
• 5. Break egg into a bowl. Add cottage cheese and mix.
• 6. Spray casserole dish with Pam/grease with butter/whatever you prefer (I like Pam). Layer some of the meat until it covers the bottom of the dish.
• 7. Sprinkle some cheese on top of the meat.
• 8. Drop spoonfuls of cottage cheese mixture next and spread. Then place the bake-ready lasagna strips over that (covering the cottage cheese). Finish this layering process and end with either meat or cottage cheese. Top with remaining cheese, salt, and pepper.
• 9. Pop in the oven and cook for 30-40 minutes. Check it - if it's bubbling, it's done. Let sit for about 10 minutes or more. Enjoy!
