Burrito Filling

Chorizo Gravy

Method

Prepare Burrito Filling

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the applewood smoked bacon until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from skillet and let drain on paper towels. Once cooled, crumble into small pieces.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the diced bell peppers and onion. Sauté until softened, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

  3. 3

    Scramble the Eggs

    In a bowl, whisk the eggs with salt and black pepper. Pour into the skillet and scramble over medium heat until fully cooked. Combine with the sautéed vegetables and crumbled bacon.

Make Chorizo Gravy

  1. 4

    Cook Chorizo

    In a separate skillet, cook the chorizo over medium heat until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat.

  2. 5

    Make the Roux

    Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the cooked chorizo and stir to combine. Cook for an additional minute to eliminate the raw flour taste.

  3. 6

    Add Liquid

    Gradually whisk in the milk and chicken broth. Cook, stirring continuously, until the gravy thickens, about 3-5 minutes. Season with paprika, cayenne, salt, and black pepper to taste.

Assemble Burritos

  1. 7

    Fill the Tortillas

    Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave. On each tortilla, add a portion of the egg, bacon, and vegetable mixture, followed by a sprinkle of cheddar cheese.

  2. 8

    Roll the Burritos

    Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll from the bottom up to enclose the filling. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.

  3. 9

    Serve with Gravy

    Place the burritos on a serving plate and drizzle generously with the chorizo gravy. Serve hot.
