Ingredients
- 12 ounces Chorizo sausage
- 4 medium Yellow potatoes
- 8 pieces Corn tortillas
- 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
Directions
Step 1
1. Wash and dice the potatoes into small, bite-sized cubes (about ½ inch in size).
Step 2
2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chorizo sausage, breaking it into small pieces with a wooden spoon, for about 6-8 minutes or until fully cooked and browned. Transfer the chorizo to a plate and set aside, leaving the rendered fat in the skillet.
Step 3
3. In the same skillet, add the diced potatoes and cook over medium heat in the chorizo fat. Stir occasionally and cook for 12-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and tender. Season with a pinch of salt if needed.
Step 4
4. Warm the corn tortillas by placing them on a dry skillet or directly over a low flame for about 30 seconds per side, until soft and pliable.
Step 5
5. Assemble the tacos by dividing the cooked potatoes and chorizo evenly among the tortillas. Top with a drizzle of sour cream and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro. Serve immediately and enjoy!
