    Ingredients

    Amounts for
    • 2 rolls of ciabatta, halved
    • 150g chorizo, halved lengthways
    • 75g green pesto
    • 200g roasted red pepper (drained weight)
    • 30g rocket

    Method

    1. Heat the oven to 180°C (fan 160°C). Warm the ciabatta on a tray for 5 minutes, then split it open.

    2. Meanwhile, fry the chorizo cut-side down in a dry pan over a medium heat for 4-5 minutes, turning once, until crisp and the oil has run.

    3. Spread the green pesto over the cut sides of the warm ciabatta.

    4. Layer on the roasted red peppers and the chorizo, then spoon over some of the oil left in the pan.

    5. Top with the rocket, close the sandwiches and press together. Cut in half to serve.
