There used to be a good tapas bar in Georgetown ( D.C. ) that used to serve something like these. The only thing different was they sprinkled dry rosemary on them also! Boy does this take me back a few years! Thanks for a grand reminder of my wilding days! I have been making these often and experimenting with the herbs, wine and spices. This last time I made these ( Christmas weekend 2007 ) I used a comination of red wine ans dry sherry, fresh rosemary and 6 crushed juniper berries... took it to a whole other level... thanks FT! This is still one my family's favorites!

This was an excellent nibble to have with drinks before a tapas party I had especially good as able to make it in advance. I got a really good chorizo from our local deli and marinated for just under 24 hours, the flavours were fantastic. I never knew what to do with chorizo before - now I do! Thank you FT!

Delectable! They ended up marinating more like 48 hours and were just outstanding. I served them as part of a tapas dinner for neighbors and they were gone in a flash. You can't eat just one...! Thanks, Karen. I love these.

Thanks for a simple, tasty tapas treat! We served at a Spanish dinner party for 8 and took the average rating from us all! A winner, for sure. I had to use thyme rather than bay leaves only because I didn't have any at the last minute! Loved it, French Tart!

Made this as an appetizer for a family meal. Everyone loved it. It was very easy to make.

This was nothing but excellent! Had to send off for the chorizo. Couldn't find any decent one here! Served as part of a tapas lunch. Didn't change a thing. Thnx for posting, FT. Made for ZWT5

I made this up early on Sunday morning and served the tapas at the beach later in the day. Very good and different. For obvious reasons, more popular with adults than with children. Great with cold beer.
