Generously coat a large frying pan with cooking spray. Cook and stir chorizo in the prepared pan over medium-high heat until well browned and crumbled. Add onion and chile pepper; continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until onion is tender.
Beat eggs in a medium bowl and add to chorizo mixture. Reduce heat to medium-low; continue cooking and stirring until eggs are scrambled and no longer runny.
