Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Chorizo and Potato Skillet.
Step 1
Begin by heating a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the chorizo.
Step 2
Cook it while stirring frequently until it transforms into a rich, dark red hue, which should take about 6 to 8 minutes.
Step 3
Once perfectly cooked, remove the chorizo from the skillet and set it aside, allowing its flavors to linger.
Step 4
In the same skillet, introduce the bacon drippings and melt them over medium to medium-high heat.
Step 5
Toss in the diced potatoes and let them sizzle, stirring occasionally for around 10 minutes until they start to soften.
Step 6
Next, add the chopped onion and serrano pepper to the mix.
Step 7
Continue to cook and stir until the potatoes are fork-tender, the onion becomes translucent, and the serrano pepper softens, which should take an additional 2 to 6 minutes.
Step 8
Finally, return the chorizo to the skillet, stirring everything together until heated through.
Step 9
Season with salt and black pepper to your liking, and savor the delightful medley of flavors that come together in this dish.
