Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 35 minutes
Equipment: Cooking pan, cutting board, knife
Servings: 4
Instructions:
1. Start by removing the casing from the chorizo. Slice the chorizo into small pieces.
2. Heat a pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the chorizo pieces to the pan and cook until they release their oils and begin to brown slightly.
3. Add the chopped red onion to the pan with the chorizo and cook until the onion starts to become translucent.
4. Now, add the diced yellow chili peppers to the mixture. If you prefer milder dishes, you can start with just one chili and adjust to taste.
5. As the aromatics cook, start preparing the mushrooms by slicing them into large pieces; this way, they retain a nice texture after cooking. Remember to preserve the stems since they are also packed with nutrients and flavor.
6. Once the onions and chili peppers have softened, add the minced garlic to the pan and stir for a minute until fragrant.
7. Add the diced tomatoes to the pan, season the mixture with salt and black pepper to taste, and stir. Allow the tomatoes to cook down slightly and blend their juices with the chorizo, creating a savory sauce.
8. Now introduce the sliced mushrooms to the pan. Mix well to coat the mushrooms with the sauce. Cover the pan to allow the mushrooms to cook thoroughly in the steam and mix with the flavors of the chorizo, about 3-4 minutes.
9. Sprinkle chopped cilantro over the mushroom and chorizo mixture, stir, and let the cilantro infuse its aroma into the dish for an additional minute.
10. Remove from the heat and serve the Chorizo and Mushroom Delight hot, garnished with additional cilantro. Enjoy it on its own, or serve it over a bed of fluffy white rice or with warm tortillas.

Cooking Tips:
- Adjust the amount of chili peppers to match your preferred spice level.
- There's no need to add oil to the pan, as the chorizo releases enough fat to cook the other ingredients.
