One-Pan Shrimp with Spanish Chorizo and Corn

This shrimp and Spanish chorizo is a fuss-free recipe using a single pan. It’s hearty, filled with amazing flavors, packed with seared shrimp and spicy chorizo sausage. It comes with red bell pepper, a rich tomato sauce and fresh sweet corn. Plus, there’s plenty of garlic. The perfect marriage of simple and deeply flavorful ingredients. Serve with bread or rice and a generous dousing of Tabasco for a real treat.

It’s easy, quick and extremely delicious. Chorizo and shrimp join forces with fresh corn, a simple tomato sauce and lots of garlic. You can serve it to company alongside a big chunk of crusty bread to scoop up the thick sauce. It makes for a speedy, low-stress meal that still feels special and indulgent. Or, a really nice weeknight dinner when combined with rice, that comes together quickly.

Let me guide you through the recipe with this step-by-step VIDEO.
