LaLa's Chorizo Pasta Linguine

When you plate this beautiful dish up to serve to your guests, it appears like you've been slaving away in the kitchen! Little do they know that it has so few (and easily accessible) ingredients and it took you next to no time to make; but they don't have to know that ;) This recipe is a fusion of my love of chorizo and Nigella Lawson's Linguine with Lemon, Garlic and Thyme recipe. So with that in mind, you can guarantee this is a fast dish to make without compromising on taste. 



Serves 4-6 | 20 minutes
Ingredients
250g sliced button mushrooms (one punnet)
2 Chorizo sausages, sliced thinly
1 250g packet pasta (thick Spaghetti or Linguini) 
2 teaspoon minced garlic*
1 Tablespoons lemon juice*
2 teaspoon dried Thyme* 
2 teaspoon dried Parsley*
Salt and Pepper to taste*

*These ingredients can vary according to the taste of the guest. Measurements provided in this recipe make for a strongly flavoured dish. 


1. Boil pasta as per packet instructions, then set aside. 


2. Fry the chorizo on both sides using a non-stick pan. When chorizo is browned on each side, keep chorizo aside but do not disregard the oil. 


3. Fry garlic, thyme, parsley and lemon juice using the chorizo oil. Then add mushrooms and continue stirring until cooked to desired state. 


4. Once mushroom is cooked, return chorizo and mix in the pasta ensuring the oils and juice coat the pasta. 


5. Serve up your Chorizo pasta to guests!
