Ingredients

  • 4 links Chorizo sausages
  • 1 Red bell pepper
  • 1 Yellow bell pepper
  • 1 Green bell pepper
  • 1 Large onion
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat if you're using a gas grill. If using charcoal, prepare the coals until they're glowing and covered with white ash.

Step 2

While the grill is heating, slice the red, yellow, and green bell peppers into strips. Cut the onion into thick rings for grilling.

Step 3

In a large bowl, toss the bell peppers and onion rings with olive oil, salt, and pepper, ensuring they are evenly coated.

Step 4

Place the chorizo sausages, bell peppers, and onion rings on the grill. Grill the chorizo for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are evenly charred and cooked through.

Step 5

At the same time, grill the vegetable slices for about 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally until they are tender and have grill marks.

Step 6

Once everything is cooked, remove the chorizo and vegetables from the grill and allow to rest for a couple of minutes.

Step 7

Slice the chorizo into thick pieces and arrange them on a serving platter with the grilled vegetables.

Step 8

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy the smoky, spicy chorizo and the sweetness of the charred vegetables.
