Step 1
Dice the onion into small pieces and roughly chop the cilantro. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and slice.
Step 2
Remove the chorizo from its casing and break into crumbles.

Heat a 10-inch cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook for 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and crispy.
Step 4
Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or directly over a gas flame for 30 seconds per side until pliable.

Place a spoonful of chorizo on each warm tortilla. Top with diced onion, avocado slices, cilantro, and a dollop of salsa verde.
