Chorizo tomato egg skillet with parmesan and parsley

The Chorizo Tomato Egg Skillet with Parmesan and Parsley is a savory and hearty dish that brings together the rich flavors of spicy chorizo, tangy tomatoes, and creamy eggs. Topped with aromatic parsley and grated Parmesan cheese, this one-skillet meal is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or even a quick dinner.

Ingredients:

1/2 tbsp olive oil
7g
3 oz chorizo
81g
1/4 tsp red pepper (spice)
0.08g
2 onions
30g
1.50 cups canned tomatoes
360g
2 eggs
110g
2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
10g
4 tsp fresh parsley
5g

Instructions:

2. Heat the Skillet:
- In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
3. Cook the Chorizo:
- Add the sliced or crumbled chorizo to the skillet.
- Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chorizo starts to render its fat and becomes slightly crispy.
4. Add Onions and Red Pepper:
- Add the chopped onions and red pepper to the skillet.
- Cook for another 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onions are soft and translucent.
5. Add Tomatoes:
- Pour in the canned tomatoes and bring the mixture to a simmer.
- Reduce the heat to low and let it cook for about 7-10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Stir occasionally.
6. Make Wells for the Eggs:
- Using a spoon, make two small wells in the tomato and chorizo mixture.
7. Add the Eggs:
- Crack an egg into each well, being careful not to break the yolks.
8. Cook the Eggs:
- Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 5-7 minutes until the egg whites are fully set, but the yolks are still runny (cook longer if you prefer firmer yolks).
9. Finish with Cheese and Parsley:
- Sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese over the skillet.
- Garnish with the chopped fresh parsley.
10. Serve:
- Serve hot directly from the skillet with some crusty bread or tortillas on the side for dipping.

Tips:

- Use a non-stick skillet to prevent the eggs from sticking and to make cleaning easier.

- If you prefer a milder dish, you can reduce or omit the red pepper.

- Make sure to cook the chorizo until it's browned and crispy to enhance its flavor.

- Allow the tomato sauce to simmer for a few minutes before adding the eggs to deepen its flavor.

- Use fresh, high-quality Parmesan cheese for the best taste.

- Garnish with extra fresh parsley for added color and freshness just before serving.

Cooking the Chorizo Tomato Egg Skillet is a simple and delicious way to enjoy a flavorful and nutritious meal. The combination of spicy chorizo, juicy tomatoes, rich eggs, and fresh herbs creates a harmonious balance of flavors that will satisfy your taste buds. Serve it with some crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce, and enjoy a warm, comforting dish that's sure to please.
