Ingredients
  • 1 large Sweet Potatoes
  • 4 oz Chorizo (Spanish or Mexican)
  • 1/2 Red Onion
  • 1/2 Red Bell Pepper
  • 2 cloves Garlic
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 2 Eggs
  • to taste Salt
  • to taste Black Pepper
  • 2 tbsp chopped Fresh Cilantro (optional)
  • 1/2 sliced Avocado (optional)

Prepare the Ingredients

Begin by dicing the sweet potato into small, bite-sized cubes. Finely chop the red onion and red bell pepper. Mince the garlic. Remove the chorizo from its casing (if applicable) and crumble it.

Sauté the Vegetables and Chorizo

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the crumbled chorizo and cook until browned, rendering its fat. Remove the chorizo from the skillet and set aside, leaving the rendered fat in the pan. Add the diced sweet potato, red onion, and red bell pepper to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potatoes are tender and slightly browned, about 15-20 minutes. Add the minced garlic during the last minute of cooking.

Combine and Season

Return the cooked chorizo to the skillet with the sweet potato mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir well to combine.

Fry the Eggs

While the hash is finishing, fry the eggs in a separate skillet to your desired doneness (sunny-side up, over easy, etc.).

Assemble and Serve

Divide the sweet potato and chorizo hash between two plates. Top each serving with a fried egg. Garnish with fresh cilantro and sliced avocado, if desired. Serve immediately.
