I made this to go with the shrimp I made for dinner last night, and we enjoyed it. I didn't have link chorizo, but I had some ground chorizo. I also forgot to measure out my cooked rice before mixing it in, but I had made my usual size batch of rice (8oz uncooked rice). It may have cooked up to 3 cups after expansion, but I'm not sure. DH was especially happy with this rice, since he's from Michoacan. Thanks for posting, we'll be using this recipe again for sure!
