Breakfast Hash with Chorizo & Eggs

by Judy

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

Do you make big breakfasts on the weekend?  I don’t as frequently as I use to when I had two boys living at home, but sometimes we enjoy cooking a bigger breakfast and this Breakfast Hash with Chorizo & Eggs hits the spot!

Breakfast Hash with Chorizo and EggAfter I posted a recipe for Hassleback Potatoes with Chorizo and Eggs my neighbor, who loves chorizo just as much as I do, brought me a package of the kind of chorizo she uses (Cacique is the brand).  It’s a Mexican chorizo that comes in a tube rather than individual links. I thought a “hash” with the chorizo and potatoes cooked in my cast iron skillet sounded like a good idea.

I cut up the potatoes into chunks along with an onion and orange bell pepper.   Cooked it up in a little oil in the skillet.  While that was cooking, I cooked the chorizo in a different pan (wasn’t sure how it would cook up), then added it to the potatoes.  When I was ready to serve breakfast, I fried up a couple eggs to put on top. Garnished with a little shredded cheddar, green onion and cilantro and declared it breakfast!

But I didn’t stop there.  I had some potato/chorizo mixture left over so I thought I’d also try it with scrambled eggs instead of fried eggs.  That was really awesome too!  In fact, personally, I liked this version better.   Just scramble the eggs in the same skillet with the remaining potato/chorizo.  Both ways were so delicious so I thought it was best to give you options.  If you prefer scrambled eggs over fried eggs, give the scrambled egg version a try.

Breakfast Hash with Chorizo and Scrambled EggsOh, and PS…this Breakfast Hash with Chorizo & Eggs is also really good wrapped in a tortilla like a breakfast burrito.  And who says you have to have it for breakfast?  Makes a great dinner too!

Breakfast Hash with Chorizo & Eggs

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 C. diced red potatoes
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 orange bell pepper, diced
  • couple shakes of salt & pepper
  • Oil for cooking
  • 1 pkg. chorizo
  • eggs – 1 or 2 per person, depending on how many eggs each person wants
  • Garnish: Shredded cheddar cheese, sliced green onions, chopped cilantro

Instructions

  1. Dice potatoes into chunks. I quartered them, then cut the quarters in half, so I got 8 chunks per potato. Cut onion and orange bell pepper into similar sized pieces. Heat skillet and add some oil to cook the potatoes, onions and peppers. I like to cover the potatoes while they cook and continue to stir occasionally so they don’t burn.
  2. Meanwhile, brown/cook chorizo in pan, then add to potatoes. When ready to serve, add potato/chorizo mixture to plate and top with fried egg. Garnish with shredded cheese, sliced green onion and some chopped cilantro.

For the scrambled egg version:

  1. Mix a couple eggs together in a bowl as you normally would for scrambled eggs. Add to skillet with potatoes and chorizo and cook, stirring, until eggs are cooked. Then garnish as noted above.
