How to make Chickpeas with Chorizo and Bacon:
1 The first thing you should do is pre-list the ingredients for this recipe for stewed chickpeas.
2 Remember that legumes such as chickpeas must be hydrated the day before in cold water. The next day, you will see that they will have increased in size. Cook the chickpeas in hot water over medium heat for about 45 minutes or until soft.
3 Peel the potatoes or potatoes and cut them into medium squares, take them to a deep pot with water until they are covered and adding a pinch of salt. Let cook until soft, remove the pot from the heat and reserve the potatoes made.
4 In a food processor, add the base ingredients of the sauce: the tomatoes and the onion. Add the garlic cloves or use garlic paste if you like. Process the ingredients until they are integrated to be able to continue with the chickpea stew.
5 Bring a skillet over medium heat with the olive oil and the ingredients for the soffit; add salt, black pepper and sauté for a few minutes. This time I wanted to make the sauce in this way to obtain a puree of all these vegetables, but if you want to chop them instead of processing them, it is totally valid.
6 Add the oregano to the sauce of the chickpeas with chorizo and bacon recipe. Finally, deglaze the preparation with the white wine and reserve.
7 In a separate pan, add the chorizo in small squares and the finely chopped bacon or bacon. Sauté until these ingredients are well browned and remove the pan from the heat.
8 In a pot, combine all the previous steps: the cooked chickpeas, the potatoes, the base sauce and the chorizo with the bacon. Let these ingredients conserve for about 15 minutes, or more if you wish, over medium-low heat and rectify the flavor by adding salt or black pepper to taste.
9 Serve the recipe for chickpeas with chorizo and bacon accompanying the preparation with fresh avocado and sprinkled cilantro. If you want, you can also accompany the dish with white rice with paprika. This recipe for chickpeas with meat is a really delicious dish, as you will notice that the bacon and chorizo will give this legume an incredible flavor.
