Best 4 Chorizo Hash Browns Recipes

CHORIZO-POTATO HASH BROWNS WITH BLACK BEANS AND SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• For the black beans: Combine the black beans, 1/2 cup water, coriander and cumin in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until heated through. Keep warm.
• For the salsa verde: In a bowl, combine the tomatillos, lime juice, cilantro, red onions, olive oil and honey to taste. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• For the hash browns: Put the potatoes in a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook until very tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• Heat the canola oil in a large cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add the chorizo and cook until brown and separated into small pieces. Add the butter, then add the potatoes, breaking them up and pressing them down a bit using a potato masher. Stir the potatoes and sprinkle them with salt and pepper. Add the Monterey Jack and cotija. When the Monterey Jack gets melty, stir in the cilantro.
• To serve: Set a ring mold on a plate and press some of the hash brown mixture into the mold. (If you don't have a ring mold, just spoon some of the hash browns onto a plate.) Unmold and spoon some of the black beans over the hash browns. Top with an egg and some salsa verde. Garnish with cotija, cilantro, green onions and a dusting of ancho powder.

SPANISH BURGERS WITH MANCHEGO AND CHORIZO HASH BROWNS

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil in a skillet over medium heat then add chorizo.
• While chorizo is rendering and browning, peel onion. Place meat in a mixing bowl. Grate a few tablespoons of onion directly over the meat. Quarter the remainder of the onion and thinly slice.
• Add potatoes and onions to the chorizo. Season the hash browns with salt and pepper and fresh thyme. Once the potatoes are lightly browned, 7 to 8 minutes, flip them and press them down with a spatula to crisp them, continue to cook 7 to 8 minutes more.
• To the sirloin, add parsley, smoked paprika, garlic, salt and pepper. Mix the burgers to combine and form 4 large patties. Create an indentation in each burger using the heal of your hand to counter the burger at the center that happens to burgers as they cook - your burgers will be nice and flat for topping if you use this trick!
• Heat the remaining extra-virgin olive oil, 2 turns of the pan, in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the burgers to the skillet and cook 3 to 4 minutes on each side for medium rare burgers and up to 6 to 7 minutes on each side for well done. Melt manchego cheese, 2 thin slices on each burger, the last 2 minutes they are in the pan. Tent the skillet with loose foil to trap enough heat to melt the cheese.
• Place pequillo peppers in food processor and add hot sauce, salt and pepper. Process the peppers into a smooth paste.
• To assemble, place burgers on bun bottoms and top with sliced red onion, cucumber and tomato. Slather the bun tops with pepper paste and set into place. Serve crispy hash browns with chorizo along side.

YUCCA HASH BROWNS WITH CHORIZO

Steps:

• Peel the yucca, cut it into 3- to 4-inch sections and quarter it lengthwise. Lay the quarters with a cut side down and slice off the core; discard. Cut cored quarters into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Put the yucca in a medium saucepan with salted cold water to cover by a few inches. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook until translucent and just tender but not falling apart, about 15 minutes. Strain, return the yucca to the pot, set over low heat and toss once or twice to dry it out.
• While the yucca boils, put 2 tablespoons of the oil and the chorizo in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chorizo is browned and just cooked through, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate, using a slotted spoon. Add the onions to the skillet, sprinkle with salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent and beginning to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the bell peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and charred in spots, about 5 minutes. Transfer to the plate with the chorizo.
• Heat the remaining 4 tablespoons oil in the skillet. Add the yucca and sprinkle with salt; using a metal spatula, chop and press the yucca into the hot oil. When it is a little crusty on the bottom, after 1 or 2 minutes, turn the yucca over and keep pressing and turning until you have lots of crispy yucca, about 4 minutes more. Stir in the chorizo-vegetable mixture and heat through.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet on medium heat. Swirl in the butter. Crack the eggs into individual bowls. Add the eggs side by side in the pan. Cook until the outer edges turn opaque, about 1 minute, then cover, lower the heat and cook for 4 minutes. If you want a medium yolk, cook for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Serve the hash browns hot and topped with the fried eggs.

CHORIZO HASH BROWNS

Steps:

• Cook onion, scallions, and garlic in 1 tablespoon oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Peel potatoes and coarsely grate. Squeeze any excess water from potatoes and mix with onion mixture, chorizo, parsley, paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl until combined well.
• Wipe out skillet and heat butter and remaining tablespoon oil over medium heat until butter is melted. Add potato mixture, spreading evenly in skillet and pressing gently to flatten. Cook over medium heat until crisp and golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Invert a large plate over skillet. Holding plate and skillet tightly together, invert hash browns onto plate. Slide back into skillet and press gently to flatten. Cook until golden and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes more. Cut into wedges and serve.
