Chorizo Poached in Red Wine

Directions

1. Place the sausage, red wine, garlic, bay leaves and cayenne pepper into a large sauté pan and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, covered, for 15 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, uncover, and set aside for 5 minutes.
2. Remove the sausage from the mixture and place on a cutting board. Slice the sausage, on the diagonal, into 1/4-inch-thick pieces and then return to the pan. Simmer the mixture over medium heat for an additional 5 minutes and then transfer to a bowl and serve.
