Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 ounces Mexican chorizo sausage, casings removed if necessary
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 8 small corn or flour tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack or cheddar cheese
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 1/2 cup salsa or pico de gallo
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions

  1. Cook the Chorizo:

    • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and fully cooked (about 5-7 minutes).
    • Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess fat.

  2. Prepare the Eggs:

    • In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
    • In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium-low heat.
    • Pour in the egg mixture and cook gently, stirring until the eggs are softly scrambled and just set. Remove from heat.

  3. Warm the Tortillas:

    • Heat tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat or wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for about 20 seconds until soft.

  4. Assemble the Tacos:

    • Divide the scrambled eggs among the tortillas, then top with cooked chorizo.
    • Sprinkle with cheese, add diced avocado, spoon over salsa or pico de gallo, and garnish with chopped cilantro.
    • Serve with lime wedges for an extra citrusy kick.

Notes

  • Add crispy diced potatoes for extra texture.
  • If you like it spicy, add diced jalapeños to the chorizo or use a hot salsa.
  • Swap Monterey Jack with Cotija cheese for an authentic Mexican touch.
