Time 18m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 baked potatoes, peeled and cubed
½ cup chopped onion
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
salt and freshly ground black pepper
7 ounces chorizo sausage, removed from casings
5 eggs
1 tablespoon milk
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro, divided
6 small corn tortillas, warmed
½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
6 tablespoons salsa

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add potatoes, onion, garlic powder, and onion powder to one side of the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Add chorizo sausage on the other side of the skillet and saute, breaking up with the back of a spoon, until browned, about 5 minutes. Turn over the potatoes after a couple of minutes so they get brown on both sides.

  • Spread out warmed tortillas and divide potato, chorizo, and egg mixture among them. Sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons cilantro. Top with Cheddar cheese and salsa.

Time 15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 ounces chorizo sausage
8 (6 inch) corn tortillas
6 eggs
¼ cup milk
½ teaspoon pepper
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 dash hot pepper sauce (e.g. Tabasco™), or to taste
½ cup salsa

Steps:

  • Crumble the sausage into a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir until evenly brown. Set aside.
  • Heat one skillet over medium heat, and heat another skillet over high heat. The skillet over high heat is for warming tortillas. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt and pepper. Spray the medium heat skillet with some cooking spray, and pour in the eggs. Cook and stir until almost firm. Add the sausage, and continue cooking and stirring until firm.
  • Meanwhile, warm tortillas for about 45 seconds per side in the other skillet, so they are hot and crispy on the edges, but still pliable.
  • Sprinkle a little shredded cheese onto each tortilla while it is still hot. Top with some of the scrambled egg and sausage, then add hot pepper sauce and salsa to your liking.
