Tacos para Desayuno (Breakfast Tacos)
12 flour tortillas
4 strips bacon, chopped
2 1/2 Tbsp olive oil
2/3 cup green chiles, minced
2/3 cup onions, minced
2/3 cup potatoes, minced
3 cloves garlic, minced
Heaping 1/4 tsp salt
Heaping 1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp Mexican oregano
8 ozs chorizo
1 1/4 lb very lean ground beef
4 eggs, slightly beaten
Refried beans (optional)
1 cup Monterey jack cheese, grated
Fry the bacon until it is soft
Drain grease & remove bacon to a small dish
Heat olive oil in a skillet over moderate heat & add green chiles, onions, potatoes & garlic
Saute the vegetables until they are well browned, adjusting the heat as necessary, about 8 to 10 min, stirring often
You may have to add a little more olive oil to keep the vegetables from sticking
Add tomatoes & continue cooking for 3 min, stirring often
Add salt, cumin & oregano & cook for 1 min
Add chorizo, breaking it up & stirring it into the vegetables
When the chorizo has browned & released most of its fat, add the ground beef, breaking it up & mixing it with the other ingredients
When the ground beef has browned, add the bacon, cover the skillet, turn the heat to very low, & simmer, stirring occasionally, for 10 min
Add the eggs & continue cooking, stirring constantly, until eggs are well incorporated & set
Spoon filling on each tortilla, add some refried beans, if used, top with cheese, & serve with your favorite hot sauce
