Ingredients

  • 1 pound chorizo sausage
  • 40 pieces medjool dates pitted
  • 2 pounds bacon thinly-sliced

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
  • Remove chorizo from casing. In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook chorizo, stirring often and breaking the chorizo into chunks. Cook 5-6 minutes, until the chorizo is bubbling and completely separated. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and let cool for 10 minutes.
  • Once chorizo is cool to the touch, stuff the dates with chunks of chorizo. Cut bacon strips in half. Wrap each date in half a strip of bacon and secure with a toothpick. Place on foil-lined baking sheet.
  • Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, turning the dates halfway through to cook the bacon evenly. Serve warm or at room temperature.
