Instruction

  • Heat a large non-stick skillet to medium-low heat. Coat with cooking spray. Add the beaten eggs and use a spatula to constantly fold the eggs as they cook, until just set. Stir in ¼ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon black pepper. Transfer the eggs to a plate and set aside.
  • Heat the oil in the same skillet to medium heat. Add the onion and bell peppers and cook 3-4 minutes or until slightly soft. Add the chorizo and cook 6-7 minutes or until browned, breaking up the sausage into small pieces with a wooden spoon. Stir in the garlic, chili powder, cumin and smoked paprika.
  • Fold in the cooked rice, scrambled eggs and remaining salt and black pepper. Fold in chopped cilantro.
  • Top with cheese, avocado and/or tortilla chips, as desired.
