Papas con Chorizo

Ingredients

• 1 lb Russet potatoes
• 9 oz Mexican chorizo
• 0.5 cup White onion
• 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 2 tbsp Fresh cilantro(optional)

Instructions

1. 1

   Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1/2-inch cubes.

2. 2

   Place the potato cubes in a pot of salted water, bring to a boil, and simmer for 5-7 minutes until slightly tender but still firm. Drain well.

3. 3

   In a large skillet over medium heat, add the chorizo (remove casing if necessary). Cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, for about 5-8 minutes until browned.

4. 4

   Remove the chorizo from the skillet and set aside, leaving the rendered fat in the pan. If there isn't enough fat, add the vegetable oil.

5. 5

   Add the potatoes and diced onion to the skillet. Fry over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the edges.

6. 6

   Return the cooked chorizo to the skillet and stir to combine with the potatoes. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to allow flavors to meld.

7. 7

   Season with additional salt if needed and garnish with chopped cilantro before serving.
