Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 -6 potatoes (or more depending on size)
1/2 onion, chopped
1/2 bell pepper, chopped (optional)
1 celery rib, diced (optional)
1 -2 garlic clove, minced
5 ounces chorizo sausage (one pkg mexican chorizo)
vegetable oil
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Peel and cut potatoes into squares, the smaller the better.
  • Heat pan and add enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan, add the potatoes, onion, peppers and celery and cook on med low heat with a lid. Let potatoes cook for a few then stir. Replace lid and let cook for a few more minutes. You want your potatoes to start to get soft and cook all the way through.
  • After they are cooked, turn up the heat and fry to desired texture -- I like mine on the crispy side.
  • Move the potatoes to the edges of the pan and add the chorizo to the pan. Turn up the heat to med-high. The chorizo will start to disolved and melt into a chunky sauce. Stir with the potatoes and cook for a few minutes longer to make sure the chorizo is cooked.
  • Remove from heat and serve!
