CHORIZO-POTATO TACOS

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl, add 1/2 cup water and season with salt. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the vegetable oil in a medium skillet over high heat, then add the squash and cook until browned but still crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and transfer to a bowl. Add the sausage to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until it begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the potatoes and cooking water and cook, tossing, until the potatoes are browned and the sausage is cooked through, 5 to 6 more minutes. Season with salt.
• Combine the tomatoes, scallion, jalapeno and cilantro in a bowl and season with salt. Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or wrap in a damp towel and warm in the microwave, about 1 minute. Fill with the squash and chorizo mixture and sprinkle with the cheese and salsa. Top with sour cream and/or guacamole, if desired.

CHORIZO AND POTATO TACOS

Steps:

• In a 12-inch nonstick skillet, bring 4 cups of water to a boil over high heat. Add potatoes and season with 1 teaspoon salt. Cover and reduce the heat to medium and cook until the potatoes are cooked through, about 5 minutes. Drain the potatoes and set aside. Clean the skillet with paper towels.
• Add oil, chile powder, paprika, coriander, oregano, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, allspice, ¾ teaspoons salt and ½ teaspoon pepper to the pan and stir to combine. Cook spices over medium heat until the mixture lets of its aroma and starts to bubble. Remove from the heat and stir the vinegar, sugar and garlic. Let mixture cool down for about 5 minutes, then add the pork.
• Cook pork over medium-high heat, breaking up the pork with a wooden spatula and mix to combine with the spices. Once the pork is cooked through, add the potatoes and cover. Reduce the heat to low and cook until the potatoes have soaked up the juices in the pan, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and mash about ¾ cup potatoes in the pan and mix the mashed potatoes in with the remaining potatoes until evenly combined. Cover to keep warm while you prepare the sauce.
• Add all sauce ingredients to the food processor and process until smooth. Transfer sauce to a serving bowl.
• Heat tortillas in a microwave for about 30 seconds or until warm. Or on a gasstovetop, over low heat carefully char tortillas on both sides to your liking. Spoon filling into the center of each tortilla and serve with lime wedges andyou choice of condiments.

CRISPY POTATO AND CHORIZO TACOS RECIPE

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Add vinegar and 2 tablespoons salt. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook until potatoes are just cooked through, about 5 minutes after coming to a boil. Drain potatoes and let rest over sink until mostly dry.
• Heat 4 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large nonstick or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until lightly smoking. Add potatoes, shake to distribute around the pan, and cook, tossing and stirring occasionally until very crisp and golden brown on all sides, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat remaining oil in a medium nonstick or cast iron skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add chorizo and cook, stirring, until heated through. Continue cooking, stirring and tossing frequently, until all the liquid has evaporated, some fat breaks out, the chorizo starts sizzling, and eventually is quite dry and well-browned, about 15 minutes.
• Transfer cooked chorizo to pan with potatoes. Toss to combine and season to taste with salt. Serve chorizo and potato mixture immediately with tortillas, onions, cilantro, salsa, and limes on the side.

TURKEY CHORIZO AND POTATO TACOS

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes and place them in a medium-sized pot. Add enough water to cover the potatoes by 2 inches and add ¾ teaspoon salt. Cover the pot and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Boil for 30 minutes or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork. Remove the potatoes from the water and set aside to cool slightly. While the potatoes are cooking, in a medium bowl, mix the ground turkey with the remaining salt, pepper, paprika, garlic, adobo sauce, coriander, oregano, and cider vinegar. Coarsely mash the potatoes with a fork. Add to the turkey mixture and stir to combine. Heat a 12-inch cast-iron or nonstick pan over medium heat. Add the oil and tilt the pan gently to coat it. Add the turkey-potato mixture, spreading it in a thin layer so that it covers the bottom of the pan. Cook the mixture without stirring for 5 to 6 minutes, or until a crust develops on the bottom and the mixture turns golden brown. Flip the mixture in sections and cook on the other side for another 5 minutes, until golden brown and crispy. Be sure the turkey is cooked through and no longer pink. Divide the mixture among the corn tortillas and top with Cabbage Slaw and Guacamole. Serve with cilantro leaves, lime wedges and hot sauce. The turkey can be mixed (and refrigerated) a day or two in advance-for stronger and spicier flavor-but the mixture tastes best when served immediately after cooking.
