CHORIZO EGG BREAKFAST BURRITO RECIPE



Chorizo Egg Breakfast Burrito Recipe image

Chorizo, egg, potato, and avocado breakfast burritos with ranchero cheese and salsa verde. Filling, tasty, and not too complicated. Just right for weekend mornings. Make ahead, great for freezer burritos. (Although, we prefer them freshly made. They're so good they never seem to make it to the freezer.)

Categories     Breakfast

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 large eggs
10 ozs. Mexican chorizo (spicy pork sausage)
1 large white potato
1 medium white onion
1 small bunch spring onions
6 ounces ranchero cheese (queso ranchero)
2 medium avocados
4 large or 6 medium flour tortillas
2 cups of your favorite salsa (try the salsa verde)
1/2 tsp. salt

Steps:

  • Prep the Chorizo
  • Cut the chorizo in half.
  • Remove the casing with your fingers and discard.
  • Break the chorizo into chunks and set aside.
  • Cooking the Burrito Filling
  • Chop the onions and potatoes into 1/4″ pieces. Over medium heat, cook the onions in 1 tsp. oil for 1 minute.
  • Add the potatoes and cook for 10 to 12 minutes until the potatoes start to brown.
  • Add the chorizo and cook for 12 minutes until the chorizo has given up most of it fat.
  • Beat the eggs with 1/2 tsp. salt and pour them into the pan with the chorizo, potato, and onion.
  • Let the eggs set for one minute. Then turn. Cook until the eggs have just set and break up the eggs with your spatula. Cook for couple more minutes until all of the egg has cooked through.
  • Rolling the Burrito
  • Cut the avocado into 1/4" pieces. Slice the spring onion into very thin rings including the 2" of the green stem.
  • Heat the tortillas in a dry pan until they start to puff up and become pliable. Heat them for about 30 seconds per side. Don't let the tortilla become crispy which makes it difficult to roll.
  • On the warm tortillas, place the chorizo and eggs, then add about 1 oz. of crumbled cheese, a couple of tbsps. of diced avocado and 2 tbsps. of salsa.
  • Fold the bottom of the tortilla up about 1" then fold the sides of the tortilla in about 1".
  • Roll the burrito tightly tucking the sides of the tortilla in as you go. It should form a tight cylinder with even ends.
  • Slice the burrito in half to serve.
  • Serve with extra salsa for dipping and some chopped avocado topped with crumbled cheese and sliced spring onion on the side as a garnish.

This was taught to me by a Mexican-American friend of mine in Texas. She always made homemade tortillas. I'm not that ambitious but the results are still good.

1 large potato, diced
3 eggs, slightly beaten
2 large flour tortillas

Chorizo-Potato Breakfast Burritos image

This burrito delivers the best of breakfast in every bite: eggs, hash browns, chorizo and cheese.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 teaspoons vegetable oil
8 ounces fresh chorizo, casings removed
1 cup frozen hash browns (not patties)
8 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
A few dashes of hot sauce
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
4 large burrito-size flour tortillas
1 avocado, sliced
1 1/4 cups prepared pico de gallo
1/2 cup shredded Mexican-blend cheese

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook, breaking it up into small pieces, until cooked through and crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate using a slotted spoon. Add the hash browns to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Beat together the eggs, a pinch of salt, a few grinds of pepper and a few dashes of hot sauce in a medium bowl until well blended. Return the chorizo to the pan and pour the eggs over the potatoes and chorizo and cook, stirring, until the eggs are fluffy and just set, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the cilantro.
  • Working with one tortilla at a time, warm in a large nonstick skillet set over medium heat until pliable. Top with one-quarter of the avocado and egg mixture, 1 tablespoon of the pico de gallo and 2 tablespoons of the cheese. Fold in the two sides and roll up tightly from the bottom to the top. Repeat with remaining tortillas and burrito fillings. Serve with the remaining pico de gallo on the side.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 medium tomatillos (about 4 ounces), husked and rinsed
1 jalapeno pepper (remove seeds for less heat)
1 small red onion, quartered
2 cups roughly chopped fresh cilantro (leaves and tender stems)
Juice of 1 lime
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 ounces dried chorizo, thinly sliced
3 1/2 cups frozen shredded or diced hash brown potatoes (about 1 pound)
4 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 16-ounce can low-sodium refried beans
4 10-inch flour tortillas, warmed
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (about 4 ounces)

Steps:

  • Meanwhile, cook the chorizo in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 2 minutes. Remove to a large bowl with a slotted spoon. Add the potatoes to the drippings in the skillet; cover and cook, stirring halfway through, until golden brown and warmed through, 8 to 10 minutes. Add to the bowl with the chorizo and stir.
  • Add the eggs to the skillet and cook over medium heat, stirring, until scrambled, about 1 minute. Transfer to a bowl and cover. Wipe out the skillet and add the beans; warm through. Season with salt and pepper. Spread the beans in the center of each tortilla and top with the potatoes, chorizo, eggs and cheese. Fold the bottom edge of the tortilla over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll up. Serve with the tomatillo salsa.
