Thinly sliced. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, thyme and bay leaf and cook, stirring, just until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the chorizo or other sausage and saute until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Add paprika and flour and stir to coat chorizo. Cook 2 to 3 minutes, pour in the wine, and cook briefly until it evaporates. Stir in tomato sauce and water. Lower heat and simmer gently, uncovered, until the sauce just coats the chorizo, about 5 minutes. Serve hot over boiled potatoes. Sprinkle with parsley.
