Papas con Chorizo

By á-30

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 10 ounces Mexican pork chorizo, casings removed
• 1 small onion, diced
• 1 small jalapeño, seeded and diced
• 1 pound red skinned new potatoes, cut into small (1/4-inch) dice, and boiled (this helps speed up the process and makes sure they don’t burn)
• Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook, breaking up the clumps, until softened and melted down, about 5 to10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the chorizo to a paper lined plate to absorb any additional oil. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of fat from the pan and heat the pan over medium-high heat. Add the onions, jalapeño and boiled potatoes and saute until brown, about 12 minutes. Stir in the cooked chorizo and season with just a little salt and pepper, to taste.
