Classic Breakfast Tacos

Traditional dish · Mexican

A traditional Mexican-American breakfast featuring scrambled eggs, savory chorizo, and fresh toppings nestled in warm corn tortillas.

Ingredients

Servings4
  • Corn tortillas8
  • Mexican chorizo1/2 lb
  • Eggs6
  • White onion1/4 cup, finely diced
  • Cilantro2 tbsp, chopped
  • Saltto taste
  • Black pepperto taste
  • Vegetable oil1 tbsp
  • Salsa rojafor serving

Steps

  1. 1

    Remove casing from chorizo and crumble into a skillet over medium heat. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat, leaving about 1 tablespoon in the skillet. Remove chorizo and set aside.

  2. 2

    While chorizo cooks, whisk eggs with salt and pepper in a bowl. Add eggs to the skillet with the remaining chorizo fat and cook, stirring occasionally, until scrambled and cooked through.

  3. 3

    Warm the corn tortillas. This can be done by heating them briefly in a dry skillet, in the microwave wrapped in a damp paper towel, or directly over a low gas flame for a few seconds per side until pliable.

  4. 4

    Assemble the tacos: Spoon scrambled eggs and cooked chorizo into the warm tortillas. Top with diced white onion and chopped cilantro.

  5. 5

    Serve immediately with salsa roja on the side.
