Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • ¼ cup Mexican-style chorizo

  • 1 tablespoon bacon grease

  • ½ cup diced potatoes

  • 2 tablespoons chopped onion

  • 1 serrano pepper, chopped

  • 2 large eggs

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

  • 4 (8 inch) flour tortillas

  • avocado oil cooking spray

Directions

  1. Cook chorizo in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until it turns dark red, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from the skillet.

  2. Melt bacon grease in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add diced potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, 8 to 10 minutes. Add onion and serrano pepper; cook and stir until potatoes are fork-tender, onion is translucent, and serrano pepper is soft, 2 to 6 minutes. Add eggs and chorizo; stir until cooked and completely incorporated into potato mixture, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

  3. Meanwhile, heat tortillas in a large skillet or directly over the grates of a gas stove until soft and pliable. Place 1/3 cup chorizo mixture down the center of a tortilla. Fold top and bottom of tortilla over the filling, then roll into a burrito shape. Mist with cooking spray and place into the air fryer basket. Repeat to make remaining burritos.

  4. Air-fry at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 4 to 6 minutes. Flip each burrito over, mist with cooking spray, and air-fry until lightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes more.
