Sandwich Night Favorite: Argentine Choripán Sandwich Recipe With Fresh Chimichurri Sauce Sandwiches Dinner Lunch

Choripáns are simple sandwiches made with chorizo. Other condiments can be added, but chimichurri is usually the topping of choice. This sandwich is popular in Argentine, Peru, Chile, Uruguay and El Salvador. 

A choripán sandwich is easy to make, though it looks quite impressive. This choripán recipe is made in an oven, but you could grill the sausages outside just as easily. 

While the sausages bake in the oven, throw together the simple chimichurri sauce made with garlic, shallots, parsley, oregano, hot chili peppers, apple cider vinegar and olive oil. To assemble the sandwich, cut the cooked sausages in half lengthwise. Add a generous amount of chimichurri to the bread and top with the sausages. That's it! Now dig in.

Serve these meaty hot sandwiches for lunch or dinner.
