Chorizo Tomato Sauce (For Pasta Or Chicken) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, cut in half and chopped
1 medium green pepper, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
1 lb chorizo sausage, casings removed
2 (14 ounce) cans diced tomatoes (undrained)
1 (4 ounce) can black olives, sliced (drained)
salt and pepper, to taste

Preparation

Heat the oil in a large saucepan. Add -- in this order -- the green pepper, onion, and garlic, allowing each to soften a bit before adding the next. Add the cumin and cayenne pepper (if using) when you toss in the garlic.
Stir in the chorizo and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, till done.
Add the diced tomatoes and sliced black olives. Turn down heat and simmer till desired thickness is reached (I like mine pretty thick). Season with salt and pepper to taste and served over pasta or chicken (or perhaps something else as well?).
