Ingredients:
1/4 onion
1 jalapeno
8 eggs
4 flour tortillas
cheese (Monterey Jack or Mozzarella)
1/2 lb. chorizo (or standard sausage)
1/2 teaspoon salt
freshly cracked black pepper
For the potatoes:
1 potato
1 teaspoon chili powder (optional)
salt
black pepper
olive oil
For the Tomatillo-Chipotle Salsa:
4 tomatillos
2 garlic cloves
2 chipotles in adobo
Directions :
Dice a potato and toss with salt, pepper, a dollop of oil, and 1 teaspoon chili powder (optional). Bake the diced potatoes in the oven at 400F for 20-25 minutes, giving them a toss after 15 minutes or so.
Husk and rinse the tomatillos. Roast the tomatillos in the oven at 400F for 10-15 minutes or until they start to turn army green. De-stem and de-seed two chipotles in adobo. Add the tomatillos, 2 peeled garlic cloves, and a single chipotle to a blender and pulse blend. Take a taste for heat level. If you want more heat add the second chipotle. If you want a thinner salsa you can add 2-3 Tablespoons of water.
Saute the chorizo in a skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes on each side. Set aside when done.
Finely chop 1/4 onion and 1 jalapeno. (You can use less jalapeno if you want a milder version). Saute onion and jalapeno in olive oil over medium-low heat for 4-6 minutes or until tender. Whisk together 8 eggs and add them to the onion-jalapeno mixture, along with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and some freshly cracked black pepper, cooking over medium-low heat. Set aside when done.
To build the burritos, start by heating up a flour tortilla in a skillet for 30-60 seconds. Add the eggs, potatoes, chorizo, cheese, and salsa. Roll tight and saute in a dry skillet for 1-2 minutes on each side or until it crisps up and starts to turn brown. Serve immediately.
Enjoy!!
