PAPAS CON CHORIZO (MEXICAN CHORIZO AND POTATOES)



Papas con Chorizo (Mexican Chorizo and Potatoes) image

The bold, delicious flavors of this traditional Mexican dish are sure to become your new favorite breakfast. Top with a fried or poached egg, or serve inside corn tortillas. I like to top mine with Cotija cheese, cilantro, and hot sauce, with a side of avocado. Home- or store-made chorizo is best, however, feel free to use your favorite brand.
