arayes-mexicanos

Arayes Mexicanos — a beefy fusion of Lebanese & Mexican flavors. If you’re unfamiliar with arayes, simply put, they are beef-stuffed pita pockets. They are typically seasoned with ingredients traditional to the region & grilled until browned. This rendition incorporates Mexican flavors but the most prominent comes from chorizo. Authentic chorizo is made with pork & packed full of flavor thanks to Spanish smoked paprika, garlic, vinegar as well as a medley of chile peppers. My recipe uses beef chorizo but feel free to stick with pork chorizo if you would like. Alongside chorizo in this recipe, you’ll find jalapeno, onion, garlic & cilantro. Once you knock out the prep, which can be done in advance, this recipe is very quick & hassle-free –– pair with queso or salsa for the perfect for weeknight dinner or quick yet satisfying lunch.
