So many flavors and textures
We crafted this recipe with ingredients that would make it stand out and not seem like another boring sheet pan meal. We love sheet pan meals because they are quick and easy, but sometimes they can be a little lacking in flavor. Not so with this chicken and chorizo bake! This recipe is:
Smoky & heartyVersatile for leftoversA little crunchy
How do you add a crunchy texture?
Hemp seeds are the secret ingredient that adds a little bit of crunch to this chicken and chorizo. Hemp seeds (sometimes labeled as hemp seed hearts), add a mild nutty flavor and a slight crunch. They mix in well with the veggies, chicken and chorizo so you’ll get a little bit of crunch in each and every bite!
Where can I find Whole30 compliant chorizo?
We’ve found two Whole30 compliant chorizo options that we recommend:
Pederson’s No Sugar Chorizo SausageMulay’s Chorizo (we buy it at our local Natural Grocers)
If you can’t find chorizo that fits your needs, you can substitute other kinds of sausage. Italian sausage or a spicy breakfast sausage would be good options.
