Ingredients to make the original Micas Extremadura:
- 500 grams of bread (preferably the day before)
- 1 red bell pepper
- 50 grams of sausage
- Olive oil
- 1 head of garlic
- 50 grams of bacon
- Salt
How to make the original Micas Extremadura:
- In a large bowl, place the previously cut slices of bread, a pinch of salt and a stream of water (use a colander) to soak the bread evenly.
- Cover the dish with a cloth so that it soaks well and let it rest. On the other hand, we cut the chorizo and the bacon into very fine pieces and fry them in a frying pan with a drizzle of olive oil, until they are golden brown.
- When they are cooked, remove, drain and reserve the chorizo and bacon.
- We use the pan where we fry the chorizo and bacon, to brown the garlic, which must be whole, and the red pepper.
- Next, add the bread, mixing everything well until the bread turns red.
- Add the previously reserved chorizo and bacon to the pan, when the bread is crumbled and loose, mixing everything well.
- We check the point of salt and when they are cooked, we leave them in the pan to rest. We serve hot
