CHORIZO-STUFFED DATES WITH PIQUILLO PEPPER SAUCE
Adapted from Perry Hendrix, the chef de cuisine at the acclaimed restaurant Avec in Chicago, these intensely flavored mouthfuls are meaty, spicy and sweet all at once. You could serve them as an appetizer, sitting in a pool of silky sauce, but they could also work as finger food, with the sauce set aside for dipping. Make sure to buy uncured, fresh chorizo sausage rather than the salami-like cured kind. Specialty stores generally carry jars of piquillo peppers, but if you can't find them, substitute any roasted red peppers for the sauce.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and shallots and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Add peppers and tomatoes and cook on low heat for about 30 minutes to 1 hour, or until the liquid in the sauce has mostly evaporated. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Let sauce cool slightly, then transfer to a blender and process until smooth. Thin with warm water to reach desired consistency if necessary. You want a thick sauce but not so thick that it mounds on the plate.
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Stuff dates with chorizo, using about 1/2 tablespoon of chorizo per date. Cut bacon slices in half lengthwise and wrap a slice around each date.
- Place stuffed dates on a small baking sheet and bake 15 minutes, or until chorizo is cooked through. Turn broiler to high and broil for 2 to 4 minutes, or until bacon is dark brown and crisp.
- Spread sauce on each plate and place 3 dates on top. Serve warm.

Steps:
- For the sauce: Place a heavy-bottomed saucepot over medium heat. When the pan is hot, add a film of olive oil followed by the garlic and shallots with a large pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables start to soften and become aromatic, about 3 minutes. Then add the piquillo peppers and tomatoes. Stir until everything is combined and bring the mixture up to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until all the flavors combine and the sauce reduces slightly, about 30 minutes. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper and add the sherry vinegar. After 30 minutes, puree the sauce until smooth if you prefer (see Cook's Note) or leave a little bit chunky.
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- While the sauce is cooking, prepare the dates: Make a slit down one side of each date. Stuff the date with the chorizo and then close the incision. Wrap with a piece of bacon and secure with a toothpick where the seams meet. Place on the prepared baking sheet and bake until the bacon on one side is crispy, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and remove the picks.
- Pour the red pepper sauce into a shallow baking dish and arrange the dates on top, soggy-side up. Place back in the oven, uncovered, until the bacon on top is crisp, another 10 minutes or so. Remove from the oven and serve the crispy dates with some sauce spooned around and on top.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a sheet tray with silicone baking mat or parchment.
- Make an incision on one side of each date and insert a block of chorizo. Squeeze the date shut in your hand to secure. Wrap each date with a bacon strip and secure with a toothpick. Place all the dates on the prepared sheet tray. Roast the dates in the oven until the bacon on top is starting to crisp, 5 to 6 minutes. Turn the dates over and repeat the process.
- Remove the dates from the oven and brush both sides with the maple syrup. Return the dates to the oven until the dates are really crackly and sticky, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve hot.
TAPAS: BACON WRAPPED DATES AND SWEET RED BELL PEPPER SAUCE
This recipe was inspired by one of our favorite tapas dishes. It's just like we like remember it from our first date some 13 years ago. I incorporated 2 Zaar recipes to create this clone. All of this can be made ahead and warmed in the microwave before serving. The Sweet Red Bell pepper sauce really make this dish amazing! Thanks go out to go to: Julesong's Recipe#27425 and cflethcher's Recipe#140057. UPDATE: 11/2013 The restaurant uses applewood smoked bacon and roasted red pepper "butter sauce" so I will be trying these 2 latest additions and reporting back

BACON WRAPPED CHORIZO STUFFED DATES
A terrific little appetizer that is smokey, sweet, and spicy. With only 3 ingredients what could be easier. I think this could also be made with andouille sausage tho I haven't tried it that way yet.

- Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut open one side of the date and remove the seed (if needed). Stuff with the chorizo, dividing it up equally among the dates (about 1/4 an ounce each). Wrap with a piece of bacon, tucking in the ends on the bottom of the date. Place on the baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes until chorizo is cooked through and bacon is golden brown.
- While the dates cook, make the sauce. Heat a medium sized sauté pan over medium heat and add olive oil. Let it get hot, about 30 seconds. Add onion and garlic and sauté 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly. Add peppers and salt and pepper and sauté for another 8-10 minutes until soft. Add mixture to a Vitamix or high powdered blender and blend until smooth.
- When the dates are done and the sauce has cooled some, it's time to assemble. Either cover the bottom of a plate/dish/small pan with the sauce or place small dollops on a plate. Pierce dates with a toothpick and place on top of the the sauce. Enjoy!
