Chickpeas Chic

This is a recipe I made up on the spot. I saw a can of chick peas and thought it would be a good way to ease in to becoming a full vegetarian. There are meat products in this dish, but they can be easily substituted with veggie products.

Ingredients:
1 can of chick peas
1/2 of a chorizo sausage chopped into small pieces
a few shreds of proscuitto
7 cherry tomatoes
1 clove of chopped garlic
2 tsps. of white vinegar
1/4 cup of chicken broth
1/2 of a sliced onion
2 tsps. of paprika
salt, pepper to taste
parsley, oregano to taste

Directions:
In a pan, heat olive oil, add garlic and onions, saute.
Add sausage, keep stirring.
Add white vinegar.
Add paprika.
Drain can of chick peas, add into pan.
Add tomatoes.
Add salt, pepper, parsley, oregano to taste.
The mixture should be pretty dry, so add in chicken broth. As the liquid evaporates, you can keep adding water to keep it moist.
Finally, when it is close to being cooked (about 6 minutes on med. heat), you can add in the proscuitto slices. Proscuitto cooks extremely fast, so it is always best to add it in at the last minute.

Preparation time: 6 minutes, just a bit of chopping
Cooking time: 6 minutes (chick peas from the can are pre-cooked, so you're just cooking them to make them a bit softer and for the infusion of flavours.)

I'm not sure what type of cuisine this falls under, it's just something I made up and it was delicious. It's quite healthy as it is high in protein and the spices make it so flavourful. Chick peas are quite filling and are carb like, but are not heavy like carbs.
