Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chorizo

    In a skillet over medium heat, add the chorizo. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula until it is browned and cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.

  2. 2

    Scramble the Eggs

    In a bowl, whisk together the eggs until well blended. In another skillet, add a little oil or butter over medium-low heat. Pour in the eggs and gently stir with a spatula until the eggs are just set but still soft, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Dice the tomato and avocado. Set aside.

Assembling the Tacos

  1. 4

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a dry skillet over medium heat, warm the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

  2. 5

    Assemble Tacos

    On each tortilla, layer the scrambled eggs, cooked chorizo, diced tomato, and sliced avocado. Crumble cotija cheese on top.

Serving
