Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 200 grams chorizo sausage
• 1 medium, finely chopped onion
• 2 minced garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 400 grams (drained and rinsed) canned chickpeas
• 400 grams canned diced tomatoes
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons (chopped, for garnish) fresh parsley
• 4 slices sourdough bread

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat.

Step 2

Slice the chorizo into bite-sized pieces and add it to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it releases its oils and turns crispy. Remove the chorizo from the skillet and set aside, leaving the oil in the pan.

Step 3

To the same skillet, add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until softened.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic and smoked paprika to the pan, stirring for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 5

Stir in the drained chickpeas, canned tomatoes (with their juice), and honey. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 6

Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.

Step 7

Return the cooked chorizo to the skillet and cook for an additional 2 minutes to heat through.

Step 8

Meanwhile, lightly toast the slices of sourdough bread in a toaster or under a broiler until golden and crisp.

Step 9

Spoon the chickpea, chorizo, and tomato mixture over the toasted bread slices.

Step 10

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately.
