Preparing ingredients
Using a small piece of foil, wrap fresh jalapeño and 1 garlic clove. Place on grill and allow to roast for about 15 minute until soft. Remove from heat and allow to cool.NOTE: If you prefer less heat of the chile, slice lengthwise, and remove all seeds and membrane before roasting.
For the grilled corn, trim the silk and loose ends of the corn. Place on grill and cook for about 15-20 minutes rotating continuously. Remove from grill and allow to cool. Remove husks from corn and any extra silk. Cut corn off cob and set aside.NOTE: You can grill corn on an indoor grill pan. Remove all husks and silks and grill on stovetop over med high heat until tender.
Remove jalapeño chile pepper from foil along with garlic glove. Remove stem from pepper and place in a food processor and add 1 cup of fresh Cilantro. Pulse and add olive oil through the feed tube until the mixture is a consistency of pesto. Add a pinch of salt and pulse a few seconds more until fully blended. Set aside.NOTE: If you don't have a food processor you can use a mortar and pestle or mince into a super fine consistency.
In a small pan, cook chorizo to package instructions. Remove chorizo from pan and carefully wipe pan.
Increase temperature on outdoor grill or oven to 500F.
In the same small pan, heat about 2 teaspoons of olive oil. Add shrimp and 2 minced garlic cloves and sauté for about 4 minutes or until shrimp is pink throughout. Remove from pan immediately when cooked.
