Scallops with chorizo

Scallops with chorizo

* Preparation time less than 30 mins

* Cooking time less than 10 mins

Ingredients

110g/4oz chorizo sausage
400g/1lb small scallops (or larger ones, halved across the middle), removed from their shells
½ lemon, juice only
4 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Method

1. Slice the chorizo into rounds no more than ¼cm thick.
2. Place a pan over a medium heat and fry the chorizo (without adding any oil, as the chorizo will give out plenty of its own oil) for about two minutes, or until crisp on both sides.
3. Remove the chorizo from the pan and transfer to a bowl. In the same pan, fry the scallops in the oil left by the chorizo for about a minute on each side.
4. Return the chorizo to the pan with the scallops, add the lemon juice and let it bubble for a few seconds.
5. To serve, place the chorizo and scallops onto a serving plate and sprinkle over the parsley.

Bon Appétit!
