It does seem like a lot, doesn't it! I am glad you found a new favorite!
Great suggestions for adjusting the dish to your personal preferences! Thank you for sharing.
You shouldn't need to remove the casing on the chorizo. In the picture above, you can see where the casing was split as the sausage cooked and expanded.
