Chorizo Ingredients

Method

Chorizo Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, paprika, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes, vinegar, chopped cilantro, and lime juice.

  2. 2

    Mix Thoroughly

    Use your hands or a spatula to mix the ingredients thoroughly until they are well combined. Make sure the spices are evenly distributed throughout the pork.

  3. 3

    Marinate

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the mixture marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for better flavor.

  4. 4

    Cook the Chorizo

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the chorizo mixture and cook, breaking it apart with a spatula, until browned and cooked through, approximately 8-10 minutes.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Once cooked, remove from heat and serve immediately in tacos, burritos, or on a breakfast plate.
