Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly spray a 13 X 9 inch baking dish with cooking spray. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, chorizo, cilantro, onion bread crumbs, milk and egg. Using hands, mix all ingredients until well combined. Form the meat mixture into 1 1/2 inch balls and arrange in the prepared baking dish. Bake until brown and cooked through, 20-25 minutes. In a medium saucepan, combine the tomato sauce, chipotle chilies, Worcestershire sauce and garlic, then heat over medium low heat until warmed through. Serve the meatballs in warm corn tortillas with the chipotle sauce and garnished with fresh Cotija crumbles, lettuce and a dollop of Mexican crema or sour cream.
