Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
• 3/4 cup milk
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 small onion, diced
• 1 red bell pepper, diced
• 1/2 pound chorizo, casing removed
• 6 large eggs, beaten
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
• Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. Add the cold butter cubes to the flour mixture and use your fingers or a pastry cutter to cut the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the milk. Stir until a soft dough forms.
5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it a few times until it comes together.
6. Roll out the dough into a rectangle approximately 12x18 inches in size.
7. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and red bell pepper and sauté until softened.
8. Add the chorizo to the skillet and cook until browned and cooked through, breaking it up with a spoon.
9. Push the chorizo mixture to one side of the skillet and pour the beaten eggs onto the other side. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are scrambled and cooked through.
10. Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
11. Spread the chorizo and egg mixture evenly over the rolled-out dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
12. Starting from one of the long sides, carefully roll up the dough into a log, enclosing the filling.
13. Shape the log into a circle by bringing the ends together and pinch to seal.
14. Transfer the wreath to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
15. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the wreath is golden brown.
16. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
