7 oz Portuguese or Spanish Chorizo or 8 tiny links - Mexican Chorizo does not work in this recipe
2 pounds fingerling potatoes I love using white, purple and red in this recipe
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon paprika
½ teaspoon chili powder if you want to kick up the heat, feel free to add more!
¼ cup Peri-Peri Sauce
1 lemon
2 green onions sliced thin
toothpicks to hold the appetizer together optional

Preheat oven to 375ºF. Remove the casing from 7 oz. Portuguese or Spanish chorizo and slice into ¼ inch medallions.
Slice 2 pounds fingerling potatoes into ¼ inch slices.
In a bowl, mix 4 tablespoons olive oil with 1 tablespoon garlic powder, 1 tablespoon paprika, and ½ teaspoon chili powder.
Add the potatoes and chorizo to the bowl and toss with the olive oil mixture until fully coated.
If you don't have a bowl large enough you can also mix right on the baking sheet.
Place the potato and chorizo mixture on a sheet pan and bake for approximately 45-50 minutes or until the potatoes are crispy on the outside.
Remove from the oven and serve with a small bowl of peri-peri sauce. You can also mix the peri-peri sauce in with the potatoes. Sprinkle with green onion slices from 2 green onions and lemon juice, and garnish with lemon slices from 1 lemon.

Note: You can also serve this as a toothpick appetizer. Alternate potato slices and chorizo slices on toothpicks to serve. This makes this dish a great party appetizer for potlucks and more!
