Preparation Steps

Prepare the Pinto Beans

Soak the pinto beans overnight in water. Drain and rinse them before cooking.

Cook the Beans

In a large pot, add the soaked pinto beans and cover with fresh water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 1 hour or until beans are tender.

Sauté Chorizo and Vegetables

In a separate skillet, heat some oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté until fragrant. Add the chorizo and cook until browned.

Combine and Season

Once the beans are cooked, drain some liquid if necessary and add the chorizo mixture to the beans. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for an additional 15 minutes.

Cook Sunny Side Up Eggs

In a clean skillet, cook the eggs sunny side up to your desired doneness.

Assemble the Dish

In a bowl, serve the chorizo stewed pinto beans topped with a sunny side up egg. Garnish with sliced avocado, chopped jalapeño, fresh cilantro, and a drizzle of crema.
