Instructions

  1. Scrub the potatoes and cut them into ½-inch cubes. Place them in a saucepan and fill with water 1-inch above the potatoes. Add salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Let boil about 8 minutes or until fork tender. Drain well.
  2. Meanwhile, in a 10-inch skillet, cook the chorizo over medium heat. Break it up with a spoon and cook until no pink remains, about 7 minutes.
  3. With a slotted spoon, transfer the chorizo to a bowl reserving the fat in the pan.
  4. Adjust the heat to medium-high and add the onion and drained potatoes. Stir to coat in the fat and cook for 4 to 5 minutes or until the onion is tender and the potatoes begin to form a golden crust. Add the chorizo back into the pan and cook for 1 minute more.
  5. Heat tortillas according to the package directions. Fill the tortillas with the chorizo mixture and add toppings as desired.

Notes

  • Leftover tacos can be stored in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
