Authentic Argentinian Choripán Recipe for Dinner

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 1 pound pork chorizo (fresh or precooked)
  • 4 pieces crusty bread rolls (such as baguette or ciabatta)
  • 1 cup chimichurri sauce (homemade or store-bought)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for grilling)
  • 1 teaspoon salt (to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper (to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon paprika (optional for extra flavor)
  • 1 cup pickled vegetables (such as jalapeños or onions)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Prepare the grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

    Make sure the grill grates are clean for optimal cooking.
  2. Cook the chorizo

    Place the pork chorizo links on the grill. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally.

    Check for an internal temperature of 160°F (70°C) for safety.
  3. Toast the bread

    During the last few minutes of cooking, place the bread rolls on the grill to toast.

    Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
  4. Slice the chorizo

    Once cooked, remove the chorizo from the grill and allow to rest for a few minutes before slicing.

    Letting it rest helps retain the juices.
  5. Assemble the choripán

    Slice the toasted bread rolls open and fill with slices of chorizo. Top with chimichurri sauce and optional pickled vegetables.

    Serve immediately while hot for the best taste.
