Ingredients

  • 6 oz. Mexican Chorizo with the casing removed
  • 4 eggs
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

Step 1: Heat the Frying Pan

  • Heat a medium-size skillet at medium high heat. While the skillet is getting hot, crumble the chorizo apart to help you cook it evenly. You can also do this once the chorizo is already cooking in the frying pan.

Step 2: Add the Chorizo

  • Add the crumbled chorizo and cook evenly. The time you will cook the chorizo for will be about 4 minutes. If you still have pieces of chorizo that are bigger than others, try to break them apart with a wooden spoon to make them small. This will help them cook evenly.

Step 3: Add the Eggs

  • Once the chorizo is cooked, crack the eggs and add them to the frying pan, but do not stir them at first. Season the eggs and chorizo with salt. Wait for about one minute, then proceed to scramble the eggs. Gently stir the eggs to combine them with the chorizo. Keep cooking and stirring until the eggs are done to your liking. I like my eggs cooked tender, and that takes less than 2 minutes.
  • Serve with a side of refried beans, avocado slices, and some warm tortillas.
