Ingredients

8 farm eggs
2 cups of Spanish chorizo, sliced
1/3 cup of sour cream or Greek yogurt
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh oregano for garnish

Directions

1

Using a skillet, fry the chorizo on its fat at medium heat and brown it. Drain the extra fat to avoid a fatty breakfast.
2

Whip the eggs in a bowl for a few minutes with a fork or beater and add the cream or yogurt, salt and pepper. Whip for a while until the ingredients are well mixed.
3

Add the whipped eggs to the skillet along with the chorizo and let the eggs cook until you have an omelet.
4

Garnish with fresh oregano and serve with black beans.

Expert Tips

tip 1
If you wish, you can use canned beans. Eggs cook really fast, so I recommend cooking them at medium heat to avoid overcooking them. You will know when the eggs are overcooked because they turn green on the edges and achieve a plastic-like consistency. Use a medium-sized skillet to easily flip the omelet.
