Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 shallot - diced
- 1 red pepper - diced
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp coriander
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1 14 oz can fire roasted tomatoes
- 1/2 cup tomato sauce
- 4 to 5 large eggs
- Fresh cilantro - for garnish
- Pico de gallo - for garnish
- Fresh jalapenos - for garnish
- Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 lb ground Mulay's chorizo
Directions
1. Preheat an oven to 375 degrees.
- 2. Spray either one 10-inch cast iron skillets or two 6-inch cast iron skillets. For this recipe, I used two 6-inch skillets. Spray them with non-stick cooking spray just for a little extra insurance so that sauce doesn't stick.
- 3. Preheat a large skillet to medium high heat. **Quick note if you are using the 10-inch cast iron skillet you may cook all the chorizo and veggies in the skillet.
- 4. Add the olive oil and chorizo. Break up the chorizo with a wooden spoon and cook until no longer pink about five minutes.
- 5. Remove the chorizo from the skillet with a slotted spoon and place on a plate.
- 6. In the same skillet as the chorizo add the shallot, red pepper, cumin, paprika, coriander, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper.
- 7. Saute the veggies until softened about five minutes.
- 8. Pour in the fire roasted tomatoes, tomato sauce, and chorizo. Continue to stir until the sauce has warmed through.
- 9. Once the sauce has warmed through, divide the tomato mixture between the two 6-inch skillets.
- 10. Using a spoon make a well for the eggs to sit in the tomato sauce.
- 11. Crack the eggs into the well. I was only able to crack about two eggs in each of the small skillets.
- 12. Place the skillets into the oven and bake for about 10 to 15 minutes or until egg whites have turned opaque.
- 13. Remove the skillet from the oven and garnish with fresh cilantro, pico de gallo, and jalapenos. Enjoy!
