Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Chorizo

    In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add the chorizo sausage, breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook for about 5-7 minutes or until fully cooked and browned.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Onions

    While the chorizo is cooking, finely chop the onion. Once the chorizo is cooked, you can add the chopped onion to the skillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent.

  3. 3

    Warm the Tortillas

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

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    To assemble, place a generous spoonful of the chorizo mixture onto each warm tortilla. Top with fresh cilantro, diced avocado, and a squeeze of lime juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
