Crispy Fried Chorizo And Potatoes Recipes

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.

CRISPY FRIED CHORIZO AND POTATOES

PAPAS CON CHORIZO (MEXICAN CHORIZO AND POTATOES)

Steps:

• Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until slightly soft, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain.
• Meanwhile, cook chorizo over medium-high heat in a large skillet, breaking up any large clumps, until browned, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove chorizo to a paper towel-lined plate using a slotted spoon, reserving about 1 tablespoon of grease in the skillet. Add oil if necessary to make up 1 tablespoon.
• Cook onion in the same skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Add potatoes to the skillet and saute until potatoes are lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in chorizo and season with salt and pepper.

CHORIZO FRIED POTATOES

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!
