Chorizo Breakfast Dumplings Recipes

CHORIZO BREAKFAST BOWLS

Steps:

• Combine tomatoes, onion, cilantro, jalapeno, lime juice, minced garlic, and garlic salt in a bowl; stir to combine. Transfer 1/2 cup pico de gallo to a second bowl and stir in black beans. Cover both bowls and set in the refrigerator.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sweet potatoes and season with salt and pepper. Cook and stir until browned and crispy, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook and stir chorizo in a second skillet over medium heat until browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes.
• Distribute cooked chorizo, sweet potatoes, black bean mixture, and avocado amongst 4 bowls. Sprinkle with Cojita cheese.
• Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Crack eggs into the pan and cook until outer edges become opaque, about 1 minute. Cover the skillet and reduce heat to low. Cook until whites are set and yolks are set to your desired firmness, 4 to 6 minutes.
• Place an egg on top of each bowl. Serve with more pico de gallo and hot sauce.

CHORIZO BREAKFAST BURRITOS

Steps:

• Generously coat a large frying pan with cooking spray. Cook and stir chorizo over medium high heat until well browned and crumbled. Add onion and chile pepper, and continue cooking until onion is tender.
• Beat eggs in a bowl, and add to chorizo mixture. Reduce heat to medium-low, and continue cooking and stirring until eggs are scrambled and no longer runny.
• Warm flour tortillas in the microwave for 30 seconds. Spoon mixture into the middle of each tortilla and top with shredded Cheddar cheese. Roll up like a burrito, and enjoy!

CHORIZO BREAKFAST BURRITO BOWLS

Steps:

• Add the chorizo to a nonstick skillet and cook over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until cooked through, about 10 minutes. Remove to a plate, leaving as much oil from the chorizo as possible in the skillet.
• Add the potatoes, red peppers and onions to the same skillet and cook over medium heat, adding olive oil if the skillet ever seems dry, until the vegetables soften slightly, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the cumin, garlic powder, chili powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt and continue cooking, tossing only very occasionally to allow the veggies to develop some color, until the potatoes are fully cooked and the peppers and onions are soft, 10 to 15 minutes more. Add the chorizo back in, taste and adjust the seasoning as desired. Remove from the heat.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over low heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the eggs and cook, stirring continuously with a rubber or silicone spatula, until the eggs are the consistency of risotto, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat immediately and season with a few pinches of salt and a few cracks of pepper.
• Time to build. To each Tortilla Bowl, add 1/2 cup of the chorizo and potato mixture, some eggs, a pile of cheese, a drizzle of the Creamy Salsa Verde, a few pickled jalapenos and cilantro.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Brush the outsides of the tortillas with oil. Press the tortillas into jumbo muffin tins, pleating them to shape into bowls, and brush the insides with oil. (If the tortillas aren't pliable enough to mold into the cups, microwave them until they're soft.) Bake until golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes, then carefully transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. They'll crisp up as they cool.
• Heat a grill pan over medium high. Grill the tomatillos and serranos until charred on one side, about 5 minutes. Flip and grill for another 5 minutes. Let the tomatillos and serranos cool, then remove the serrano stems and seeds. Add to a blender with the cilantro, onion, yogurt, salt and garlic. Blend until combined and transfer to a serving bowl.

HOUSEMADE CHORIZO BREAKFAST BURRITOS

Steps:

• For the chorizo: Melt the lard in a medium saucepan over medium heat, then add the achiote, chili powder, cumin seeds, jalapeno and oregano and toast until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Cool slightly, then add to the pork in a bowl and mix well.
• Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and brown the seasoned pork, stirring often, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the pork, reserving the pork fat in the skillet.
• Add the red onion to the skillet and adjust the heat to medium. Cook until soft and lightly caramelized, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the pork back to the pan, followed by the eggs. Scramble the eggs into the "chorizo," then add the cheese and mix thoroughly until melted. Set aside.
• For the tomatillo sauce: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Toss the tomatillos, garlic, onion, lime juice, half of the oil and a pinch of salt in a mixing bowl, then transfer to a rimmed baking sheet and roast until tender and charred, about 20 minutes. Add to a blender along with the vinegar, remaining 2 tablespoons oil and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth, then set aside.
• For the potatoes: Dice the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil, then add the potatoes and cook until almost fork-tender, about 7 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, clip a deep-frying thermometer to a large, heavy-bottomed skillet. Heat 1 1/2 inches vegetable oil to 375 degrees F.
• Fry the potatoes until golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
• For the refried beans: Meanwhile, puree the black beans and lard in a food processor until smooth. Heat in a saucepan until warm.
• Heat the tortillas in a hot dry skillet or directly over a flame until pliable. Place a spoonful of the beans on each tortilla, then cover with the potatoes, then egg-chorizo mixture. Drizzle some the tomatillo sauce on top. Roll and serve.

CHORIZO AND SWEET POTATO DUMPLINGS WITH PEACH THAI CHILI SAUCE

Steps:

• Place sweet potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir chorizo in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Let cool.
• Drain sweet potatoes, mash, and let cool until safe to handle, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Combine mashed sweet potatoes, chorizo, Cheddar cheese, and cilantro to make the filling. Set up a prep area for dumplings, including a tray to cool them on and a bowl of water to fasten them.
• Place 2 teaspoons of filling onto a wonton wrapper, wet the outside edge, and seal. Place dumpling on the tray. Repeat with remaining filling and wonton wrappers. Refrigerate dumplings for 30 minutes before sealing in a zip-top bag to freeze.
• Combine peach jam, Thai chili sauce, and cilantro to make the dipping sauce.
• To cook the dumplings from frozen, first heat oil in a pan over medium- to medium-high heat. Add dumplings and a little water; pan-fry until heated through, 10 to 12 minutes.

CHORIZO & HALLOUMI BREAKFAST BAGUETTE

Steps:

• To make the tomato jam, put all the ingredients in a pan, season and simmer for 30 mins until you have a rich, thick glossy jam. Cool, then transfer to a sterilised jar (if you want to keep for over two weeks). Will keep, unopened, for six months.
• Halve the avocado and scoop into a bowl. Add half the lime juice and some salt and mash with a fork. Put the onion in a small bowl, pour over the rest of the lime juice and season with a pinch of salt. Mix well and set aside to lightly pickle.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan. Cook the chorizo slices on one side of the pan and the halloumi on the other, turning once the halloumi is golden and the chorizo is sizzling. Cook for about 4-5 mins in total.
• Meanwhile, split and warm the baguette in the oven. Spread the avocado over one side of the baguette, and the tomato jam over the other. Fill with the halloumi, chorizo, coriander and pickled red onions. Cut up and tuck in.
