Housemade Chorizo Breakfast Burritos Recipes

Steps:

• Generously coat a large frying pan with cooking spray. Cook and stir chorizo over medium high heat until well browned and crumbled. Add onion and chile pepper, and continue cooking until onion is tender.
• Beat eggs in a bowl, and add to chorizo mixture. Reduce heat to medium-low, and continue cooking and stirring until eggs are scrambled and no longer runny.
• Warm flour tortillas in the microwave for 30 seconds. Spoon mixture into the middle of each tortilla and top with shredded Cheddar cheese. Roll up like a burrito, and enjoy!

Steps:

• Cook chorizo - In wide skillet, saute chorizo sausage, stirring it and breaking it up so that the finished product is small and crumbly. Remove to paper towels to drain. Clean skillet of any blackened bits.
• Prepare egg mixture - Whisk together eggs, salsa, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Don't add water or milk because you want firm scrambled eggs.
• Scramble eggs - Pour the egg mixture into the hot skillet (add a bit of butter if necessary, to prevent sticking) and scramble the eggs. When the eggs are nearly done, turn down the heat and add the drained sausage and shredded cheese; remove from heat.
• Heat tortillas - Put 5 tortillas between damp paper towels and microwave 45 seconds. Repeat for other 5 tortillas.
• Assemble - Put egg mixture onto warm tortilla and roll up. Place each completed tortilla in a piece of waxed paper for easy freezing and removal.
• To reheat - microwave 2 minutes at 50% power.

Steps:

• For the chorizo: Melt the lard in a medium saucepan over medium heat, then add the achiote, chili powder, cumin seeds, jalapeno and oregano and toast until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Cool slightly, then add to the pork in a bowl and mix well.
• Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and brown the seasoned pork, stirring often, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the pork, reserving the pork fat in the skillet.
• Add the red onion to the skillet and adjust the heat to medium. Cook until soft and lightly caramelized, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the pork back to the pan, followed by the eggs. Scramble the eggs into the "chorizo," then add the cheese and mix thoroughly until melted. Set aside.
• For the tomatillo sauce: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Toss the tomatillos, garlic, onion, lime juice, half of the oil and a pinch of salt in a mixing bowl, then transfer to a rimmed baking sheet and roast until tender and charred, about 20 minutes. Add to a blender along with the vinegar, remaining 2 tablespoons oil and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth, then set aside.
• For the potatoes: Dice the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil, then add the potatoes and cook until almost fork-tender, about 7 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, clip a deep-frying thermometer to a large, heavy-bottomed skillet. Heat 1 1/2 inches vegetable oil to 375 degrees F.
• Fry the potatoes until golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
• For the refried beans: Meanwhile, puree the black beans and lard in a food processor until smooth. Heat in a saucepan until warm.
• Heat the tortillas in a hot dry skillet or directly over a flame until pliable. Place a spoonful of the beans on each tortilla, then cover with the potatoes, then egg-chorizo mixture. Drizzle some the tomatillo sauce on top. Roll and serve.

Steps:

• Fry chorizo in a frying pan with oil in pan until cooked to your liking. Pour the beaten eggs over the cooked chorizo and mix well together. Cook until eggs are cooked to your liking. Heat the flour tortillas and pour chorizo and eggs into each of 4 tortillas and wrap. Cover with red or green salsa.
• Grind the pork in a meat grinder set on the coarsest grind. Add garlic, salt, red chile, and oil and mix by hand. Form into patties. Chorizo is ready to freeze or cook and serve.
