Ingredients
- 6 cups Stale Bread
- about 225 g Chorizo
- 1 medium Red Bell Pepper
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 3 tbsp Olive Oil
- 1 tsp Smoked Paprika
- 2 tbsp Flaxseed Meal
- 6 tbsp Water
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/4 tsp Black Pepper
Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.
Instructions
- 1In a small bowl, combine the 2 tablespoons of Flaxseed Meal with the 6 tablespoons of Water. Stir well and let it sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
- 2Place an approximately 30 cm skillet over medium heat (175°C). Add the 3 tablespoons of Olive Oil.
- 3Add the about 225 g of Chorizo to the hot skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chorizo is browned and has released its fat, about 5-7 minutes.
- 4Add the 1 medium Red Bell Pepper, cut into 1.27 cm pieces, and the 3 cloves of Garlic, minced, to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, until the bell pepper is softened, about 5 minutes.
- 5Add the 6 cups of Stale Bread, torn into bite-sized pieces, to the skillet. Toss the bread with the chorizo, bell pepper, and garlic to coat it in the rendered fat and oil.
- 6Stir in the 1 teaspoon of Smoked Paprika, the 1/2 teaspoon of Salt, and the 1/4 teaspoon of Black Pepper. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
- 7Pour the thickened flaxseed mixture over the bread and chorizo mixture in the skillet. Stir everything together to combine. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is heated through and the bread has softened slightly.
- 8Serve the Migas immediately.
