MEXICAN CHORIZO APPETIZER RECIPES RECIPES

Steps:

• Place the pork, Aleppo pepper, chili powder, garlic, salt, black pepper, oregano, cumin, cloves, and coriander into a bowl, and lightly toss the pork with the seasonings until thoroughly blended. Cover the bowl, and refrigerate the meat, your meat grinder's head assembly, and grinder hopper for 1 hour.
• Fill a large mixing bowl with ice cubes, and place a smaller metal bowl in the ice cubes to catch the ground meat. Assemble the chilled meat grinder, and grind the pork and seasonings using a coarse cutting plate. Return ground meat to refrigerator for 30 minutes. Lightly stir the ground pork with the vinegar and water until thoroughly mixed, form into patties, and refrigerate overnight, covered, to let flavors develop.
• Heat vegetable oil in a heavy skillet over medium-low heat, and pan-fry the patties until browned and no longer pink in the middle, 5 to 8 minutes per side.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Bake crescent rounds as directed on can. Remove from oven. Immediately, press back of soup spoon in center of each round to make an indentation. Reduce oven temperature to 300°F.
• Meanwhile, remove casings from sausage. In 10-inch skillet, break up sausage; cook over medium heat 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thoroughly cooked. Drain. Set aside.
• In 8-inch skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add mango slices; cook 1 to 2 minutes on each side or until hot. Drain on paper towels.
• Fill each baked crescent round with one heaping tablespoon sausage; press in lightly. Top with cheese and mango. Bake 5 to 6 minutes longer or until cheese is melted.
• Meanwhile, in small bowl, mix chile and roasted pepper. Sprinkle chile mixture over appetizers. Serve warm.
