Ingredients
- 8 oz chorizo sausage
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tbsp heavy cream
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 avocado
- 1 lime
- 2 tbsp fresh cilantro
- 4 keto-friendly tortillas
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Remove the chorizo from its casing and crumble it into a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until fully cooked, about 7-8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside, leaving the rendered fat in the skillet.
Step 2
While the chorizo is cooking, beat the eggs in a bowl with the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper.
Step 3
Wipe out the skillet if necessary, and return it to medium heat. Add the butter to the skillet, allowing it to melt and foam.
Step 4
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook, gently stirring with a spatula, until the eggs are softly scrambled, 4-5 minutes. Avoid overcooking; the eggs should be creamy and just set.
Step 5
Warm the keto-friendly tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, or according to the package instructions.
Step 6
To assemble the tacos, divide the scrambled eggs evenly among the warmed tortillas. Top the eggs with the cooked chorizo, shredded cheddar cheese, slices of avocado, a squeeze of lime, and a sprinkle of cilantro.
Step 7
Serve immediately while the tacos are warm. Enjoy your keto-friendly chorizo and egg taco!
