Huevos Con Chorizo Y Papas
Chorizo Con Huevos Y Papas is a delicious Mexican dish breakfast and is super easy to make. This zesty recipe gives it an extra kick by using spicy chorizo, sautéed with crispy potatoes and peppers, all topped with a runny egg.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 large russet potatoes
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 3 scallions, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, diced
- 8 eggs, fried
- 2 tablespoon cilantro
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Dice potatoes into small cubes. In a large frying pan, heat one tablespoon of oil on medium heat. Add potatoes and turn heat up to medium-high. You’ll want to keep an eye on these and stir them every so often so that they don’t burn on one side.
- As potatoes are cooking, chop pepper and dice garlic cloves. When potatoes are about halfway done (around 10 minutes into frying) add the chopped pepper and garlic and stir frequently. Once the potatoes are golden and crispy, remove the mixture from heat and set it aside in another bowl.
- In the same pan, brown the chorizo.
- Once the chorizo is browned, add the potato mixture back to the pan and heat for 2 minutes, while mixing the two together. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- While the chorizo is cooking, prepare your eggs. We like these best over-easy with this dish, but scrambled would be good too.
- Dish up the chorizo, potato, and pepper mixture into bowls, and add your eggs.
- Top with cilantro, diced scallions, sour cream, and hot sauce (if desired).
Notes
- If the chorizo is a little greasy after cooking it, drain it before adding the potato mixture back in.
- Reheat leftovers by sauteeing everything in a medium skillet until warm, or by heating in the microwave for 2-3 minutes.
- For a more authentic version of huevos con chorizo y papas, whisk the eggs and scramble them with the chorizo and potato mixture.
- Serve with avocado slices, queso fresco or other type of cheese, warm tortillas, and refried beans.
