List of Ingredients

3/4 Lb bulk chorizo

Vegetable oil as needed

1 small onion, chopped
1 tablespoon butter
3 eggs
1 T water

Salt to taste
Salted tortilla chips
6-8 oz. mild cheddar cheese
mild, medium or hot salsa



Recipe

Preheat the oven to 350 F.
In a skillet, sauté the chorizo over medium heat.
Remove the chorizo from the skillet with a slotted spoon and drain it.
Add a little oil to the skillet if the chorizo drippings don't lightly cover the surface.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the onion.
Sauté the onion for about 10 minutes, until soft.
Reserve the onion.
Place the butter in a shallow, medium baking dish and melt in the oven.
In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the chorizo,
water and salt.
Remove the baking dish from the oven and
pour the eggs into a warm dish.
Top the eggs with enough chips to make
a single dense layer.
Scatter the onions and cheese over the chips.
Bake for 5-8 minutes, or until the eggs are
set lightly and the cheese is melted.
Top with your favorite salsa and serve immediately.
