CHEESY CHORIZO POTATOES, MILLIE'S

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....

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.
