Chickpea and Chorizo from Nichelle Stephens on Vimeo.

You may have heard of highbrow/lowbrow when it comes to culture or haute couture/low price duds when it comes to fashion, but today I cooked a high/low dish that was inspired by Mark Bittman of the New York Times. I love The Minimalist videos, and he recently did a Fried Chickpeas and Chorizo dish.

I bought chorizo from Brooklyn Larder. I bought the chickpeas from the corner bodega. The black olives were from a Goya can I opened earlier this week. I love Goya! The spinach, red onions and red peppers were from the produce aisle of the local Key Food. I added a little grated manchego that I bought Murray’s Cheese. It was delicious! Here’s a picture of the final result.
