Servings

  • 1/2 lb chorizo ground, Mexican style
  • 2 potatoes russet, peeled and cubed into 1/2 inch cubes
  • 1 medium yellow onion diced
  • 1 Serrano pepper thinly sliced
  • 2 green onion thinly sliced
  • kosher salt to taste

  2. Add potatoes and onion, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste, and saute in the chorizo grease (adding a bit of vegetable oil if necessary), until potatoes are tender on the inside and crispy on the outside, about 12-15 minutes.
  3. Add Serrano pepper and sliced green onions and cook for 1 minute more.
  4. Add potato mixture to the cooked chorizo on the plate. Wipe out skillet to remove browned bits of food.
