Ingredients
- 3 medium tomatoes or use 15 ounce can tomato sauce
- 1 small onion chopped
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1-2 teaspoons ancho powder
- 1-2 teaspoons guajillo powder
- 1 teaspoon Mexican oregano
- salt to taste
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or use butter
- 4 ounces Mexican chorizo optional
- 8 ounces dry fideo noodles or use vermicelli or similar fine egg noodles
- 4 cups chicken stock use 1.5 cups for more pasta like (fideo seco) – use 6 cups for a soupier sopa de fideo
- For Topping. Fresh chopped cilantro, queso fresco, chili flakes, lime wedges, avocado slices, crema. And hot sauce!
Instructions
- Add the tomatoes, onion, garlic, and seasonings to a food processor or blender. Process until smooth. Strain, if desired, for a smoother sauce/broth.
- Heat the oil in a large pan to medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until mostly cooked through. Remove the chorizo and set it aside for now.
- Add the fideo noodles to the hot pan and stir. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring often, until they turn golden brown.
- Pour in the tomato sauce mixture, chicken stock, and cooked chorizo (if using) and bring to a boil. Cook for 10 minutes, or until the noodles have absorbed the sauce and are cooked to your preference.
- Remove from heat, garnish and serve.
