Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 pound ground chorizo
  • ½ cup diced onion
  • 1 medium red bell pepper diced
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • ½ tablespoon chili powder
  • ½ tablespoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon salt*
  • 28 ounce canned diced tomatoes, with juice
  • 6 large eggs
  • 2 ounces queso fresco crumbled
  • ¼ cup cilantro roughly chopped

Instructions
 

  • Melt the coconut oil in a large cast iron pan or skillet over medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook until crumbled, cooked through and browned, about 8 minutes. Remove the chorizo from the pan and set aside.
  • Add the diced onion and bell pepper to the hot pan and sauté until the onions are translucent and starting to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and spices and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes, stirring to combine.
  • Add back the cooked chorizo and diced tomatoes, with the juice. Bring the meat mixture to a simmer and let cook for 15 minutes or until the mixture is thick and the liquid is almost completely reduced.
  • Make 6 wells in the pan with the back of spoon (5 around the edges and one in the middle).
  • Crack one egg into each well.
  • Cover and continue cooking until the egg whites are set and the yolks are cooked to the desired consistency. This should take about 6 minutes for a soft yolk and up to 10 minutes for a fully cooked yolk.
  • Remove the lid and sprinkle with crumbled queso fresco and chopped cilantro. Serve.
