Heat a heavy pan over high heat.

When hot, slice chorizo sausage in half lengthwise, and place in the pan.

When chorizo is nice and browned on both sides, transfer to a small toaster oven if you have one and turn it lowest temperature to keep it warm while assembling the rest of the sandwich.

While pan is hot, throw chicken on, and expect to hear it sizzle!

Thats key to getting a crispy batch.

If pan isnt hot enough, you wont get a good sear.
