Ingredients For chorizo and eggs

  • 1 Tbsp
    olive oil or bacon fat
  • 1/3 c
    chopped onions
  • 1/4 lb
    mexican chorizo sausage, removed from casing
  • 5 to 6 lg

How To Make chorizo and eggs

  • 1
    In a large skillet heat 1 Tbsp. olive oil or bacon fat over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened. Move to side of pan and add broken-up bits of chorizo into the pan. Stir until sausage is cooked through but not necessarily browned. If not using LEAN choriza, drain the excess fat from the pan before proceeding.
  • 2
    Crack the eggs one at a time into the pan. Break the yolks and stir the eggs into the sausage. Add a light sprinkling of salt. Stir constantly until the eggs begin to set, but are still moist. Remove from heat.
  • 3
    Serve immediately with a side of warmed corn tortillas and cilantro as a garnish, if desired.
