When you are preparing finger food, remember to keep the portions small - bite-sized is best.

Ingredients

2 dried chorizo sausages
1 red and 1 green capsicum
a little olive oil
flaked salt and pepper
1 clove garlic, peeled and sliced
200g stuffed green olives
bamboo skewers
3 lemons

Method

Preheat the oven to 200C.
Cut the chorizo sausages into 2cm slices and place on an oven tray. Roast in the oven for about 5 minutes until they turn brown.
Cut the capsicums into short, thick strips and place on an oven tray. Drizzle with some olive oil, season with salt and pepper and scatter over the garlic. Roast in the oven until they become brown and blistered, about 10-15 minutes. Let cool a little. On each skewer, thread olives, capsicum and a piece of chorizo.
Serve with wedges of lemon at room temperature or while still slightly warm.
