Chorizo Wedge Salad

Yields 2-4 servings

Wedge salads are soooo back (and better than ever)! Instead of the classic blue cheese, bacon, tomato combo, we are switching it up with a lime crema and our Mango Jalapeño Dressing, paired with spicy chorizo sausage and Kooshy’s chili-lime croutons. We still love the refreshing crunch of iceberg lettuce, so we had to keep that the same, especially with the creamy contrast of the lime crema.  

This recipe was made in collaboration with Kooshy Croutons.


Assembly

Pickled Shallots
Combine shallots and salt in a small bowl. Mix until salt is dissolved. Add Meyer Lemon Honey Living Vinegar, mix, and set aside.

Lime Crema:
Combine all ingredients together in a medium bowl. Set aside.

Chorizo and Corn:
Heat small pan over medium. Add EVOO. Add chorizo and cook until lightly browned. Add corn and stir. Cook until corn is heated through but still somewhat firm (about 2-3 minutes for fresh corn).

To Assemble:
Cut iceberg lettuce into wedges and transfer to serving platter. Drizzle lime crema and Mango Jalapeño Dressing onto the wedges. Finish with corn chorizo mixture, Kooshy Poco Picante croutons, and fresh cilantro.
