Method

Prepare the Meat

  1. 1

    Cook Ground Beef

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, about 7-10 minutes. Drain excess fat and season with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Shred Chicken

    If using cooked chicken, shred it using two forks. If using raw chicken, boil it in a pot of water until fully cooked, about 20 minutes, then shred.

    Cook Chorizo

    In a separate skillet, cook the chorizo over medium heat, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
