Are you ready to get in the football spirit??? In order to do so, you’re going to need an amazing man-approved meal, full of meat and dripping with flavor. I’ve learned over the years that Super Bowl Sunday is an official “man-holiday”. Let’s be honest, I just pretend to like watching football LOL. Hey, at least I’m trying. The truth is most times I don’t even know what is happening, so I try to hide my complete ignorance about the subject, cooking delicious food, and just showing for the halftime show and commercials. Please, no judgments. Since The Super Bowl happens once a year I really wanted to make something memorable. And what could be more memorable than a Bacon Choripan with Chimichurri Sauce?
Chimichurri is a green sauce originally from Argentina. It can be used both as a marinade and a sauce. My personalized version of this Argentinean sauce uses cilantro, parsley, and sweet red pepper. It’s garlicky, herby, tangy, and spicy. It’s super easy to make and adds a distinct flavor you are going to love. Choripan is a type of sandwich with chorizo very popular in Latin America. The name comes from the combination of the names of its ingredients: a grilled chorizo (sausage) and a pan (crusty bread). It’s a real staple, a street-food classic. To make this sandwich you can cut the chorizo in half lengthwise or cook them whole, it’s totally up to you. Since I was planning to add more ingredients like cheese and bacon, I decided to split mine to make it easy to eat. I can’t tell you how good this sandwich was. It’s beyond awesome! Really. I got a little carried away and added a fried egg on top. This not necessary but highly recommended. Yeah! With this sandwich, you won’t fail to win the affection of your guests! Enjoy!
