Method

Chorizo Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the chorizo

    In a skillet over medium heat, add the green chorizo and cook until browned and fully cooked, about 8-10 minutes.

  2. 2

    Sauté poblano peppers and onion

    While the chorizo cooks, chop the poblano peppers and onion. Add them to the skillet and sauté until the peppers are tender and the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

Cheese Melting

  1. 3

    Add cheese

    Reduce the heat to low and sprinkle the queso Oaxaca, Monterey Jack, and Cotija cheese over the chorizo and vegetable mixture. Stir gently until the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 3-5 minutes.

Salsa Preparation

  1. 4

    Make the avocado salsa

    In a blender, combine the avocados, serrano chiles, lime juice, and cilantro. Blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning with salt to taste.

Tortilla Preparation

  1. 5

    Warm tortillas

    In a separate skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Warm the flour tortillas one at a time, about 30 seconds on each side, until soft and pliable.

Assembly and Garnish

  1. 6

    Assemble the dish

    On each tortilla, place a generous scoop of the chorizo and cheese mixture. Drizzle with avocado salsa and top with chopped spring onions.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Serve immediately while warm, with extra avocado salsa on the side.
