Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat a 12-inch skillet over medium-high. Brown chorizo 4–5 minutes, breaking it up with a spoon until cooked through.

  2. Step 2

    Scatter tortilla chips over the chorizo, then sprinkle cheese evenly on top. Cook 2 minutes until cheese melts.

  3. Step 3

    Push chips to the edges. Crack eggs into the cleared center spots. Fry 3–4 minutes until whites set but yolks still jiggle.

  4. Step 4

    Top with salsa, jalapeño slices, and fresh cilantro. Serve immediately with orange juice on the side.
