Sandwich components

2 count Large eggs

1/2 cups mild or sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

3 oz cooked chorizo (crumbled)

1/2 count ripe avocado

2 tbsp salsa (mild or medium)

1 tbsp Sour cream

1 count breakfast roll (kaiser roll, brioche roll, or similar)

Seasoning & finishing

1 tbsp unsalted butter (for cooking and toasting roll)

1/4 tsp Celtic sea salt

1/8 tsp black pepper

1/2 tsp lime juice (optional, for avocado)

1 tsp cooking oil (neutral, for chorizo if uncooked)

1 tbsp fresh cilantro (optional, chopped)

Method

Prepare chorizo

Cook or reheat chorizo

If using raw or fresh chorizo, warm a small skillet over medium heat and add 1 tsp neutral oil. Crumble 3 oz chorizo into the skillet and cook, stirring, until browned and cooked through, about 5–7 minutes. If using precooked chorizo, heat in the skillet just until warmed, about 1–2 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside on a paper towel to drain excess fat.

Prepare avocado & roll

Prep avocado

Halve and pit the avocado. Scoop out 1/2 avocado into a small bowl. Add 1/2 tsp lime juice (optional), 1/8 tsp black pepper and a pinch of salt. Mash lightly with a fork to a chunky spread consistency. Stir in chopped cilantro if using.

Toast roll

Slice the roll horizontally. Heat a clean skillet over medium-low and add 1/2 tbsp butter. Butter the cut sides of the roll and toast cut-side down in the skillet until golden and slightly crisp, about 1–2 minutes. Remove and keep warm.

Cook eggs & assemble sandwich

Cook eggs

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1/2 tbsp butter and lower heat to medium-low. Crack 2 eggs into a small bowl and whisk lightly with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp black pepper until slightly blended (for folded/scrambled eggs). Pour eggs into the skillet and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until softly set but still moist, about 1–2 minutes. Alternatively, cook over-easy or fried eggs to your preference.

Add cheese

When the eggs are nearly finished but still slightly runny, sprinkle 1/2 cup shredded cheddar over the eggs and allow it to melt for 20–30 seconds. Fold the eggs gently to incorporate the melted cheese.

Assemble

Spread the mashed avocado evenly on the bottom half of the toasted roll. Pile the cheesy eggs on top of the avocado, then sprinkle the warm crumbled chorizo over the eggs. Spoon 2 tbsp salsa over the chorizo (on top or on the top roll), and add 1 tbsp sour cream either dolloped atop the filling or spread on the roll top. Close the sandwich and press gently.

Finish & serve

Slice sandwich in half if desired and serve immediately while warm. Optional: serve with extra salsa or hot sauce on the side.
