Our favorite breakfast burrito recipe is filled with chorizo, crispy bacon, potato, sour cream and pico de gallo, all wrapped up in a thin layer of egg, cheese and tortilla.
Yield: 4 burritos
Total Time: 45 minutesminutes
Ingredients
5slicesbacon, cut crosswise into thin strips
½pound/ 226gfresh chorizo sausage
¾pound/ 340gyukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
49-inch flour tortillas
6large eggs
1cup/ 112gshredded cheese
sour cream
pico de gallo
Instructions
Add sliced bacon to a large skillet set over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until desired doneness is reached. Transfer using a slotted spoon to a paper-towel lined plate to drain. Remove all but 2 tablespoons or so of the bacon grease (reserving excess for later).
Return skillet to medium-high heat. Add potato cubes and cook, without stirring, for about 5 minutes or until bottoms start to brown. Stir to flip and continue to cook, stirring every 3 to 4 minutes, until potatoes are tender and browned on most sides, about 12 to 15 minutes more.
Meanwhile, cook chorizo in a skillet until browned and starting to crisp, breaking up large chunks into smaller pieces with a wooden spoon.
Wrap tortillas in foil and place in the oven until warmed through.
Whisk 3 eggs together in a small bowl.
Heat an 8-inch skillet over medium heat. Add a teaspoon or so of reserved bacon grease. Add half of egg mixture, swirling to spread egg out to the edges of the skillet.
Cook for 30 seconds until bubbling, then sprinkle with 1/4 cup or so of shredded cheese. When melted, place a tortilla on top of the whole thing and press lightly to adhere. At this point the egg should be cooked through.
Flip to invert the whole thing, tortilla side down, onto work surface. Spoon a bit of potato, bacon, and chorizo down the middle of the tortilla. Top with pico de gallo and a drizzle of sour cream as desired.
Fold in edges and roll. Wrap in parchment or foil as desired (keep foil-wrapped burritos in a warm oven while you prepare the others).
Whisk remaining 3 eggs together and repeat. Enjoy warm.
