Time 1h5m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 poblano peppers, halved lengthwise and seeded
cooking spray
6 slices bread
1 pound fresh Mexican chorizo
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 medium onion, sliced
8 eggs
2 cups milk
1 tablespoon garlic powder
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 ½ cups shredded Mexican cheese blend

Steps:

  • Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place peppers with cut sides down onto the prepared baking sheet.
  • Cook under the preheated broiler until the skin of the peppers has blackened and blistered, 5 to 8 minutes. Place blackened peppers into a bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Allow peppers to steam as they cool, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray and line the bottom with bread slices.
  • Cook chorizo over medium-high heat until starting to brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Heat oil in the same pan. Add onion; cook and stir until tender, about 3 minutes. Peel poblanos and slice flesh. Mix with the onion.
  • Beat eggs and milk together in a large bowl. Season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Spread chorizo over the bread slices. Cover with onion-poblano mixture. Pour the beaten eggs on top. Sprinkle cheese blend over the top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until eggs are set and top is starting to brown, about 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • To make the chorizo, you can use store-bought or homemade chorizo. If using store-bought, choose a good quality chorizo that is not too dry. If making your own chorizo, follow a recipe that uses fresh pork and spices.
  • When cooking the chorizo, be sure to render out the fat. This will help to give the chorizo a nice flavor and texture.
  • To make the pie crust, you can use a pre-made pie crust or make your own. If making your own pie crust, be sure to chill the dough before rolling it out. This will help to prevent the dough from shrinking in the oven.
  • When assembling the pie, be sure to layer the ingredients in the following order: chorizo, eggs, cheese, and pie crust. This will help to ensure that the pie is cooked evenly.
  • To bake the pie, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake the pie for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the eggs are set.
  • Let the pie cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help to prevent the filling from running out of the pie.

Conclusion:

This Mexican chorizo breakfast pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weekend brunch or a quick and easy weeknight meal. The chorizo gives the pie a nice smoky flavor, while the eggs and cheese make it rich and creamy. The pie is also very versatile, and you can add or remove ingredients to suit your taste.
