Cuisine: Mexican
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1/2 pound chorizo sausage
- 4 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese
- 1/4 cup salsa
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare all ingredients by removing chorizo from casing and crumbling, cooking bacon until crisp, and shredding cheese.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chorizo and cook for 5-6 minutes, breaking it into small pieces until fully browned and crispy.
- In a separate pan, cook bacon until crisp and golden. Drain on paper towels and crumble into small pieces.
- Drain excess fat from chorizo skillet, leaving about 1 tablespoon for cooking eggs.
- Crack eggs into the same skillet with chorizo drippings. Scramble eggs gently, seasoning with salt and pepper, cooking until just set but still soft.
- Warm flour tortillas in a separate skillet or microwave for 15-20 seconds to make them pliable.
- Assemble burritos by placing tortilla flat, adding scrambled eggs, chorizo, crumbled bacon, shredded cheese, and a spoonful of salsa in the center.
- Fold bottom of tortilla up, then fold sides inward, and roll tightly to create a sealed burrito.
- Optional: Place assembled burritos in a hot skillet seam-side down to create a crispy exterior, about 1-2 minutes per side.
- Serve immediately with additional salsa or hot sauce if desired.
Tips
