Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound Italian chorizo (casings removed)
- 1.5 pound yellow potato (scrubbed, diced 1/2-inch)
- 1 yellow onion (chopped)
- 1 red bell pepper (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped)
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high heat. Add the crumbled Italian chorizo and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chorizo from skillet and set aside, leaving rendered fat in the pan.
- Add the diced yellow potatoes to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and lightly browned, about 10-12 minutes.
- Stir in the chopped yellow onion and red bell pepper. Cook until softened, about 3-5 minutes.
- Return the cooked chorizo to the skillet. Stir in the smoked paprika, dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Toss to combine and cook for 2 minutes to meld flavors.
- Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
Notes
Ensure potatoes are diced small for quicker cooking. This dish can be topped with a fried egg for extra protein and richness.
