Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound Mexican chorizo
  • 3 medium russet potatoes peeled and diced
  • 1 medium onion finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 8 small corn tortillas warmed

Toppings

  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • 1/2 cup crumbled queso fresco
  • 1 small lime cut into wedges

Instructions

  1. 1 Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. 2 Add the chopped onion to the skillet and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. 3 Add the diced potatoes to the skillet, stir to combine, and cook for about 10 minutes, or until the potatoes start to soften.
  4. 4 Remove the chorizo from its casing, add it to the skillet, and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until fully cooked and browned, about 8-10 minutes.
  5. 5 Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let the mixture cook for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  6. 6 Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.
  7. 7 Assemble the tacos by spooning the chorizo and potato mixture onto each tortilla.
  8. 8 Top each taco with chopped cilantro, crumbled queso fresco, and a squeeze of lime juice.
