Sauteed Potatoes With Chorizo And Parsley Recipes

SAUTEED POTATOES WITH CHORIZO

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook, breaking up the clumps, until dry and crisp, about 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the chorizo to a paper lined plate to absorb any additional oil. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of fat from the pan and heat the pan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and boiled potatoes and saute until brown, about 12 minutes. Stir in the cooked chorizo and season with just a little salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve.

POTATOES WITH CHORIZO AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Heat a medium skillet over medium high heat. Add extra-virgin olive oil, 2 turns of the pan, and the chorizo. Cook sausage 2 minutes, flip cook another minute then add potatoes and onions to the pan in an even layer over the sausage. Season the potatoes and onions with salt, pepper and paprika then turn sections of the potatoes using a spatula so that the chorizo is on top and potatoes and onions are on the bottom. Place a smaller skillet on top and press down. Weight the skillet with a few heavy cans. Cook 10 to 12 minutes. Remove weight and turn again to combine all ingredients. Cook another 3 to 4 minutes then add parsley, remove from heat and serve.

DICED POTATOES SAUTEED WITH GARLIC AND PARSLEY

Steps:

• Using a chefs knife, trim the unpeeled potatoes into rectangular blocks. Cut each into 1/4-inch thick slices. Stack 2 or more slices together and cut them into 1/4-inch julienne strips. Cut these strips into 1/4-inch dice and place in a saucepan, covered with cold water, until ready to cook. Place the potatoes in cold water, bring to boil, then immediately take off the heat and drain. Allow the potatoes to air dry. The potatoes may be held at this point for several hours without blackening.
• Meanwhile prepare the persillade by mixing together the garlic and the parsley. If the potatoes aren't thoroughly dry, blot them with towels. Heat the oil in a very large skillet (ideally large enough to hold them in a single layer) over medium heat. Add the potatoes and cook, tossing occasionally, until they brown lightly, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain and discard the oil if you wish. Add the butter and continue sauteeing for another 5 minutes or longer to brown and crisp the potatoes completely. (the potatoes can be prepared to this point and held partially covered 1 hour before serving; if completely covered, they may develop off-taste and get soggy.
• Just before serving, toss the potatoes with the garlic and parsley over medium heat for about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
