Cheesy Chorizo Potatoes, Millie's image

We love our Mexican food ! These potatoes are great when you don't want to have rice. The chorizo gives these potatoes just the right flavor and the cheese, well, everyone knows cheese makes everything better ! lol..I use whatever cheese I have on hand at the time. It's great with Pepper Jack, cheddar or the Mexican cheese blend....

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 oz mexican chorizo (i get mine fresh from the mexican grocery store.
4 potatoes, med. to lg. sized
1 1/2 c shredded pepper jack, cheddar or mexican blend
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
2 - 3 Tbsp oil (i used coconut oil)

Steps:

  • 1. Mix all the dry ingredients and set aside. Peel potatoes, wash, dry, then cut into quarters and slice into about 1/4-1/2 inch thick pieces. Mix dry ingredients then sprinkle onto potatoes and toss to coat all.
  • 2. Heat skillet (med/hi) and add oil then potatoes. Toss to coat potatoes in the oil. Cover with a lid. Cook for a couple minutes then turn potatoes with a spatula and recover and repeat till potatoes are almost done then finish uncovered. When done, remove potatoes from pan and set then aside.
  • 3. Remove chorizo from casings and fry in same skillet. (chorizo is like hamburger meat with spices in it except it's made from pork not beef)
  • 4. Once chorizo is done dump in potatoes and stir to mix up. Add cheese and cover for a minute or two just until cheese melts

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use less chorizo.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I think it could be improved with a few tweaks. I would add more garlic and paprika, and I would also use a different type of cheese.

I thought this recipe was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This recipe was too spicy for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less chorizo next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my potatoes didn't come out crispy. They were still delicious, but not as good as I was hoping.
