This is a very common breakfast in Mexico. Just grab a tortilla, fill it with papas con chorizo, top it with salsa and or avocado and breakfast is ready! Scramble some eggs in your skillet along with the chorizo mixture and now you have huevos con papas y chorizo.
Ingredients
- 1 (9 ounce) package Mexican chorizo sausage, casings removed
- 1 ½ tablespoons bacon drippings
- 2 cups diced potatoes
- 1 serrano pepper, chopped
- 1/3 cup chopped onion
- ½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
Directions
Step 1
Cook chorizo in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until sausage turns a dark red, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove chorizo from the skillet and set aside.
Step 2
Melt bacon grease in the same skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Add diced potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes. Add diced onion and serrano pepper and continue cooking and stirring until potatoes are fork-tender, onion is translucent, and serrano pepper is soft, 2 to 6 more minutes. Add chorizo back into skillet and stir until heated through. Season with salt and pepper.
Cook’s Note:
Oil or lard can be used in place of bacon grease.
