Remove chorizo from skillet, drain. Add remaining chopped garlic to skillet; cook and stir 1 min. Stir in tomatoes; cook 3 min., stirring occasionally. Return chorizo to skillet. Add remaining steak sauce and parsley; mix well.

Kitchen Tips
Tip 1
Food Facts
The name "cancato" comes from the indigenous Indian word for grilling. In Chile, this recipe is typically prepared with a whole fish that is opened like a book, topped with the chorizo, cheese and garlic mixture, then grilled flat.
Tip 2
How to Substitute Regular Heavy-Duty Foil for Nonstick Foil
If you don't have nonstick foil, you can use regular heavy-duty foil instead. Just spray with cooking spray or brush lightly with canola or vegetable oil before using as directed.
Tip 3
Nutrition Bonus
Fire up the grill! This tasty low-calorie main-dish helps you get more fish into your diet and helps your family eat right. Plus the parsley teams up with the tomatoes for a good source of both vitamin A and vitamin C.
