Ingredients
Pork and beef chorizo
3 oz or 85g
Cheddar cheese
2 cup, shredded or 226g
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 325° F. Lightly coat a 3-quart (9×13-inch) baking dish with cooking spray.
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook, breaking it up, until fully cooked, 5–7 minutes; drain any excess fat.
- Spread the diced potatoes evenly in the prepared dish. Top with the cooked chorizo, the green chilies (undrained), and half of the cheese.
- In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the chopped scallions and a pinch of salt until well blended. Pour evenly over the potato mixture.
- Bake uncovered until the center is set and the potatoes are tender, 55–60 minutes.
- Top with the remaining cheese and the jalapeño slices and bake 2 minutes more, just until the cheese melts.
- Let stand 5 minutes for easier slicing. Serve with salsa and avocado.
