SPICY CHORIZO PASTA
Macaroni and chorizo is classic Spanish comfort food. While iterations abound, it typically starts by frying smoked chorizo with a little onion, adding canned or fresh tomato and maybe some oregano, then letting it simmer into a thick tomato sauce. It's often topped with cheese and baked like a mac and cheese. Instead of fresh tomatoes, this recipe uses highly concentrated tomato paste, which is made by cooking down tomatoes for ages so you don't have to. The paste fries in the chorizo's rendered drippings for a very fast, silky, smoky and spicy sauce. When shopping for this recipe, look for Spanish chorizo, a shelf-stable sausage usually found near salami and other cured meats in the grocery store. Mexican chorizo is sold fresh and is made with different chiles and spices.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook, according to package directions, until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta cooking water, then drain the pasta.
- Meanwhile, in a large Dutch oven, heat the olive oil and chorizo over medium-high. Cook, stirring occasionally, until chorizo is crisp and brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn off the heat and use a slotted spoon to transfer the chorizo to a plate.
- Return the pot to medium heat and add the tomato paste and garlic. Cook, stirring, until the tomato paste is caramelized and a shade darker, 3 to 5 minutes, covering the pan if the splattering is wild. Add the red-pepper flakes and a few grinds of black pepper, then remove from heat.
- Add the cooked pasta and 1/2 cup of the reserved pasta water to the tomato mixture. Return the pot to the medium-high heat, and stir vigorously until the pasta is well coated. Add more pasta water until the sauce is glossy. Stir in the chorizo and season to taste with salt and pepper.

VEGAN SPICY CHORIZO PASTA
Made this today and we both loved it. My husband doesn't usually like fake meats, but this was ace. We used a full pack of redwoods chorizo style chunks and half pack of redwoods vegan pepperoni. We also used cheezly super melting mozzarella and edamabout a 1/4 of a packet of each. Usually in UK we get really boring fake meats, but these were different and great with tomato pasta.

- Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Season with a generous amount of salt It should be almost as salty as the sea. Add chicken to a large bowl. Drizzle with a teaspoon of olive oil. Sprinkle with 3/4 teaspoon salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, and black pepper. Use hands to coat the chicken. Set aside.
- Heat a large cast iron skillet (we use a 12") or a similar sized skillet with high sides to a medium-high heat. Add the chorizo. Spread it out in the bottom of the pan and let it brown. Try not to move it too much so the surface can brown. After the chorizo has cooked for a bit, use a wooden spoon to break up the meat. Continue to brown until the chorizo is cooked through, it should take about 8-10 minutes.
- When the chorizo has been fully cooked, use a slotted spoon to transfer the chorizo to a colander so the fat can drain. If there is any more than a tablespoon of fat left in the skillet, remove it. Add the marinated chicken to the skillet. Let the chicken brown and then flip over. Continue to brown until cooked through. Remove from the pan and transfer to the same plate as the chorizo.
- Turn the heat down to medium and add two teaspoons of olive oil to the pan. When the oil is hot, add the onion. Saute the onion until it starts to soften, about 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook another 1-2 minutes. Be sure the garlic doesn't burn.
