Ingredients
1 sheet frozen puff pastry, such as Pepperidge Farm brand, slightly thawed
1/2 pound chorizo, skin removed and cut into 24 1 1/2-inch pieces
1 egg, beaten
2 1/2 cups herbs, such as parsley and cilantro, loosely packed
2 cloves garlic
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)
2 1/2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Salt and black pepper
Directions
Pre-heat the oven to 400°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Roll out the pastry sheet a little and cut into 24 triangles.
Working with one puff pastry triangle at a time (refrigerate the rest of the pastry until ready to use), arrange a piece of sausage across the base of the triangle and roll up snugly, sealing the pastry with a dab of beaten egg. Transfer to the prepared pans. Brush the triangles with more beaten egg and bake until puffed and golden, about 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, using a food processor, blend the parsley, cilantro, garlic, EVOO, vinegar, crushed red pepper flakes and 2 tablespoons warm water until almost smooth. Season with salt and black pepper. Serve the pigs in blankets warm, with the chimichurri dip.
