Sheet Pan Chorizo with Potatoes and Asparagus for Two

  4.3 – 14 reviews  • Sausage

It tastes just like a Mr. Goodbar candy bar because it has crunchy peanut butter in it, precisely like the frosting used on Texas sheet cakes.

Flavor was good but dish was rataher dry. Should have added some tomatoes

What to say without being rude. First, my fault (partially) – I used Mexican Chorizo (sealed in a non-refrigerated pouch.) In fairness, the recipe didn’t make clear what KIND of chorizo. Mine were inedible. A plus: It was “pretty.” But it was oily, and who can eat half a red onion, even cooked (which it really wasn’t.)
Daryl Harvey
My husband and I both loved it. Followed everything except for the chorizo. I only had smoked sausage on hand. It was so easy and fast. Thanks for this recipe. It’s a keeper.
Adrienne Young
This was delicious, easy, and fast! I substituted green beans for the asparagus. Would 100% make this again!
Jennifer Lindsey
The veggies were delicious. However, I must have bought the wrong chorizo. It was ground chorizo shaped into a link. I was surprised when I opened the package because there was no casing. I didn’t care for the consistency of the ground chorizo. I will have to make it again but try to find the correct chorizo. Unfortunately, what I bought was all the store had.

Delicious dinner! Our asparagus didn’t come in my produce box, so I swapped it for some baby kale tossed in at the end. It was still fantastic and an easy delicious dinner.
James Gomez
Delicious, Although I used more measurements than it called for.
Donna Edwards
SO easy and delicious! Used Miled Italian sausages vs chorizo. Needed a bit longer for more tender potatoes; 25 min each time vs 15. Can’t wait to have it again!
Sonia Mcknight
I modified the recipe a little only thing u changed is I didnt have asparagus so I used a mix of other vegetables but everything else the same I feel this recipe works well with any vegetables
Monica Warner
I omitted the potatoes and onions and used 4 cups of baby carrots and 2 bunches of asparagus. Also used smoked turkey sausage to make it healthier as well. Family loved this. Thank you.
Ronald Herring
This was really good. I swapped orange and yellow bell peppers for onion. I also used turkey sausage instead of chorizo.
Jessica Jackson
So easy and flavorful! I use Portuguese Linguicia instead of chorizo and it tastes amazing. I’ve been making this almost weekly and now I make extra to have leftovers.
Matthew Gray
Delicious! And easy to make.

I make this dish with hard dry cured Spanish chorizo. It is very different from Mexican chorizo and is great for this recipe. I cut the chorizo with scissors and fry it until the oils run then I add the other ingredients except for the garlic. The chorizo has enough spice for us.
