These chorizo and egg breakfast tacos are packed with so much flavor. Delicious Mexican chorizo, soft scrambled eggs, and lots of toppings on a warm flour tortilla. So good and easy to make!
Ingredients
- ¼ cup diced white onions
- 12 ounces ground Mexican chorizo (raw) – removed from casings if needed
- Olive oil, for pan – for pan
- 8 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons heavy cream
- ¼ cup shredded Mexican blend cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 12 soft flour tortillas – taco size
Toppings
- Diced tomatoes
- Diced white onions
- Finely chopped cilantro
- Avocado slices
- Shredded Mexican blend cheese
- Lime wedges
- Diced jalapeños – optional
Instructions
- Heat ½ tablespoon olive oil in a non-stick skillet. Add the ¼ cup of diced onions and cook until slightly browned. Add the chorizo and cook until browned and fully cooked through, breaking it apart with a spatula. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
- In a bowl, whisk eggs with heavy cream, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir in the ¼ cup of shredded cheese and combine.
- Wipe skillet clean. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over LOW heat (important: soft scrambled eggs should be cooked over low heat). Add the egg mixture. When the edges start to set, swipe a rubber spatula across the skillet, creating large soft curds (the uncooked parts will flood to the center and cook). Repeat a few times each time it sets a bit, until soft and fluffy. Note: They will continue cooking from residual heat.
- Warm up the tortillas: Arrange tortillas on a plate in one single layer (slightly overlapping) and microwave for 30-60 seconds until warm. Note: If using corn tortillas, place a damp paper towel on top, and microwave.
To assemble the tacos, place some cooked chorizo and scrambled eggs on the tortillas, and add the toppings. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
