Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a seasoned skillet over medium-high heat, sauté the crumbled chorizo, stirring frequently until it's deeply browned and cooked through, releasing its aromatic oils (approximately 5 minutes).

02

Step

Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet with the chorizo. Gently fold the eggs into the sausage, cooking and stirring until they are set and beautifully scrambled with the chorizo (3 to 5 minutes).

03

Step

Warm the corn tortillas on a dry skillet or comal until they are pliable and heated through, developing a slight char for added flavor (about 2 minutes).

04

Step

Spoon the chorizo and egg mixture generously into the warm tortillas. Serve immediately and savor each bite.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika or a dash of your favorite hot sauce to the chorizo while cooking.
To keep the tortillas warm while preparing the filling, wrap them in a clean kitchen towel or place them in a tortilla warmer.
Garnish with fresh cilantro, diced avocado, or a dollop of sour cream for a refreshing finish.
