How to Make Chorizo Potatoes And Eggs

  1. Dice the potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a 12-inch frying pan over medium heat. Add the potatoes and cook until tender and lightly browned, about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  2. While the potatoes are cooking, crumble the chorizo into a separate saucepan. Cook over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. Add the cooked chorizo to the pan with the potatoes. Stir to combine thoroughly.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  5. Pour the whisked eggs over the potato and chorizo mixture. Stir gently to combine, or you can create a folded omelet style.
  6. Cook until the eggs are set to your liking, about 2-3 minutes. Season with additional salt and pepper if needed.
  7. Serve immediately. For a complete meal, serve with warm tortillas, diced green chiles, Spanish rice, refried beans, and optionally, Menudo topped with chopped onions and cilantro. Enjoy your fiesta!
