Servings: 4
Ingredients
- Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons
- Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon, or to taste
- Black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon, or to taste
- Lime
- 1, cut into wedges
- Fresh cilantro
- 1/2 cup, chopped

- 1, pitted, peeled, and thinly sliced

- Chorizo
- 1/2 pound, casing removed

- 3 large, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large bowl, toss the parsnip pieces with olive oil, salt, and pepper until well coated.
- Spread the parsnips out on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
- While the parsnips are roasting, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes.
