Ingredients

4 chorizo sausages (Argentine-style or Spanish)
4 crusty bread rolls (like baguette pieces), split
½ cup chimichurri (store-bought or homemade)
½ cup tomato salsa criolla (diced tomato, onion, olive oil, vinegar) (optional)

Steps

Grill or pan-sear the chorizo over medium heat, turning often, for 12 to 15 minutes until cooked through and browned.
Split each sausage lengthwise if it's thick, so it lies flat in the roll.
Toast the split rolls briefly on the grill or in a dry pan.
Stuff each roll with a chorizo, spoon over chimichurri and salsa criolla if using.
Serve immediately while hot.
