less than 30 mins



Cooking time

less than 10 mins

110g/4oz chorizo sausage400g/1lb small scallops (or larger ones, halved across the middle), removed from their shells½ lemon, juice only4 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. Serves four as a main course with the Chickpeas with cumin and sherry, or eight as a starter with a few salad leaves.
