Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

¼ cup Mexican-style chorizo
1 tablespoon bacon grease
½ cup diced potatoes
2 tablespoons chopped onion
1 serrano pepper, chopped
2 large eggs
salt and ground black pepper to taste
4 (8 inch) flour tortillas
avocado oil cooking spray

Steps:

  • Cook chorizo in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until sausage turns a dark red, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  • Melt bacon grease in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add diced potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, 8 to 10 minutes. Add 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 minutes. Add eggs and chorizo; stir until cooked and completely incorporated into potato mixture, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, heat tortillas in a large skillet or directly on the grates of a gas stove until soft and pliable. Place 1/3 cup chorizo mixture down the center of each tortilla. Fold top and bottom of tortillas over the filling, then roll each into a burrito shape. Mist with cooking spray and place in the basket of an air fryer.
  • Air fry at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 4 to 6 minutes. Flip each burrito over, mist with cooking spray, and air fry until lightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes more.

Tips for Air Fryer Breakfast:

  • Preheat your air fryer: Preheating your air fryer helps ensure that your food cooks evenly and quickly.
  • Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket: Overcrowding the air fryer basket can prevent the food from cooking evenly.
  • Shake or flip the food halfway through cooking: This helps ensure that the food cooks evenly on all sides.
  • Use parchment paper or foil: Parchment paper or foil can help prevent food from sticking to the air fryer basket and make cleanup easier.
  • Don't add oil to the air fryer basket: Air fryers work by circulating hot air, so adding oil is unnecessary and can make the food greasy.
  • Experiment with different cooking times and temperatures: Different foods cook at different rates, so it's important to experiment with different cooking times and temperatures to find what works best for your particular air fryer.

Conclusion:

Air fryers are a great way to cook a variety of breakfast foods quickly and easily. With a little experimentation, you can create delicious and healthy meals that the whole family will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy breakfast, give your air fryer a try.
