  2. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the chopped onion and jalapeños to the skillet and cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Add the crumbled chorizo and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes until browned and cooked through.
  5. Add the whisked eggs into the skillet, and stir gently to mix with the chorizo. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the eggs are set to your liking.
  6. Serve the huevos con chorizo hot with tortillas and beans on the side.

Notes

  • Store leftover chorizo and eggs in an airtight container for up to three days.
  • You can also freeze chorizo con huevos. You can make burritos and freeze to eat on the go! Defrost overnight in the refrigerator and heat in the microwave for a minute at the time until heated thru.
  • To reheat, melt some butter in a pan over medium low heat and reheat for a couple of minutes. This can also be reheating in the microwave for a couple of minutes depending on the amount of leftovers you have.
