Chorizo-Lemon Butter

This vibrant chorizo and lemon butter is a simple way to add a punch of smoky, citrus-led flavour to your favourite savoury dishes. By lightly rendering the Spanish sausage first, the butter is infused with a deep paprika hue and a rich, meaty depth that balances perfectly against the bright acidity of fresh lemon and fragrant flat-leaf parsley. It is an effortless finishing touch that makes a standard weeknight meal feel like a restaurant-quality feast.

While this flavoured butter is particularly delicious melted over a hot grilled steak or pan-fried white fish, it also works wonders stirred through steamed seasonal vegetables or boiled new potatoes. This dairy-free alternative recipe is versatile and convenient, as it can be prepared a couple of days in advance and kept in the fridge ready for your next dinner party or family roast.

How to make Chorizo-Lemon Butter

Put the softened butter in a bowl.
