Chicken Chorizo Sausage, Cooked

Chicken Chorizo Sausage, Cooked

EverydayCooked

Chicken chorizo is a seasoned sausage made from ground chicken seasoned with smoked paprika, garlic, and chili, offering a leaner alternative to traditional pork chorizo. The cooked version features a firm texture and bold, smoky-spicy flavor profile while containing less saturated fat than its pork counterpart. Commonly grilled or pan-fried, it serves as a high-protein ingredient in tacos, grain bowls, or egg dishes, though its sodium content may require moderation in sodium-sensitive diets.
