Chorizo And Potato Tacos With Black Bean Salsa Recipes

CHORIZO-POTATO HASH BROWNS WITH BLACK BEANS AND SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• For the black beans: Combine the black beans, 1/2 cup water, coriander and cumin in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until heated through. Keep warm.
• For the salsa verde: In a bowl, combine the tomatillos, lime juice, cilantro, red onions, olive oil and honey to taste. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• For the hash browns: Put the potatoes in a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook until very tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• Heat the canola oil in a large cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add the chorizo and cook until brown and separated into small pieces. Add the butter, then add the potatoes, breaking them up and pressing them down a bit using a potato masher. Stir the potatoes and sprinkle them with salt and pepper. Add the Monterey Jack and cotija. When the Monterey Jack gets melty, stir in the cilantro.
• To serve: Set a ring mold on a plate and press some of the hash brown mixture into the mold. (If you don't have a ring mold, just spoon some of the hash browns onto a plate.) Unmold and spoon some of the black beans over the hash browns. Top with an egg and some salsa verde. Garnish with cotija, cilantro, green onions and a dusting of ancho powder.

CHORIZO AND SWEET POTATO TACOS WITH AVOCADO SALSA

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat the olive oil until shimmering. Add the chorizo and cook over medium heat, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until rendered but not cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add the sweet potato and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the edges just start to soften and browned bits form on the bottom of the skillet, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the broth and simmer over medium-low heat, scraping up the browned bits, until the sweet potatoes are tender and the chorizo is cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and keep warm.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, gently mix the avocado with the onion, chiles, lime juice, and cilantro; season with salt and pepper.
• Serve the chorizo and sweet potato in warm corn tortillas, topped with the avocado salsa and crumbled queso fresco cheese.

CRISPY CHORIZO & CHEESE TACO-QUESADILLAS WITH SIMPLE SALSA RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• If making the chorizo, in the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the paprika, cumin, ancho chile powder, chili powder, oregano, coriander, cinnamon, cloves, ground pork, vinegar, and garlic. Mix until well combined.
• Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the chorizo and cook until the fat has rendered and the chorizo is crisp. Remove from the pan using a slotted spoon and discard the excess fat.
• Sprinkle the cheese over the tortillas, then top with the chorizo.
• Return the tortillas to the pan and cook until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is crisp, 3-4 minutes per side.
• Meanwhile, make the salsa: Coat the tomatoes, peppers, and garlic with olive oil and salt, then spread on a baking sheet. Roast under the broiler for 5-10 minutes, until charred in spots.
• Transfer the roasted vegetables to a blender and purée until smooth. Stir in the lemon juice and season with more salt to taste.
• Serve the taco-quesadillas with salsa and pickles.
• Enjoy!

POTATO-CHORIZO TACOS WITH SIMPLE AVOCADO SALSA

Steps:

• For the filling: In a medium (3 to 4-quart) saucepan, bring about 1 quart of water to a boil. Add the cubed potatoes and heavily salt the water (about 2 teaspoons), Simmer until the potatoes are fully tender, about 10 minutes. Drain.
• In a large (12-inch) heavy well-seasoned or nonstick skillet or griddle set over medium heat, combine the chorizo and onion; stir regularly, breaking up any clumps of sausage, until the onion is soft and the sausage cooked through, about 10 minutes. If the sausage has rendered more than a light coating of fat over the bottom of the skillet, pour out the excess.
• Add the potatoes to the skillet and continue to cook over medium heat, stirring regularly, until the potatoes begin to brown, about 8 minutes. As the mixture cooks, mash everything together a little with the back of a spoon or spatula, scraping up any crusty bits of potato, so that it roughly holds together (it'll look a little like hash). Cover and keep warm over the lowest heat.
• For the salsa: As the filling finishes cooking, make the salsa: In a food processor, combine the tomatillos, garlic and chiles. Pulse the machine until everything is finely chopped. Peel and pit the avocado, add the flesh to the processor and pulse until everything is well blended (the salsa will be the consistency of a light mayonnaise). Scrape the salsa into a serving bowl, taste and season with salt, usually about 1/2 teaspoon.
• Serving: Scrape the warm chorizo filling into a serving bowl and set on the table along with the avocado salsa and a basket of steaming tortillas.
• Note: If you are using store-bought tortillas, drizzle a clean kitchen towel with 3 tablespoons water and wrap your cold tortillas in it. Slide the package into a microwaveable plastic bag and fold the top over, but don't seal it. Microwave at 50% power for 4 minutes to create steam in the package. Let stand for 2 or 3 minutes before serving.
