Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C. Prepare a muffin tin by lining it with 12 muffin cases.
Put the chorizo into a frying pan over a medium heat. Cook for 2-3 minutes until golden and sizzling. Turn off the heat and leave to cool for a few minutes.
Meanwhile, tip the dry ingredients into a large bowl and mix.
Pour the wet ingredients into a jug and whisk. Pour this into the dry ingredient bowl and stir everything together with a wooden spoon.
Add the chives, chorizo and 150g of the cheese to the bowl. Mix well.
Spoon the batter evenly into each of the 12 muffin cases. Sprinkle the reserved cheese over the top.
Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes until risen and golden.
