A Recipe by El Popular

Brunch, munch, munch… Need a good breakfast or brunch recipe to impress your friends? Easy Mole Chilaquiles is the perfect dish to whip up. Chilaquiles are like soft breakfast nachos and can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion with a variety of toppings (we recommend El Popular’s Mole, of course).

Chorizo 101

Chorizo is a spicy sausage believed to have come from Ancient Rome and later adopted by the Spaniards who brought it to Mexico. Unlike Spanish Chorizo — Mexican Chorizo is soft, raw, uncured, and uncooked. Similar to how Americans view bacon, Chorizo is a versatile ingredient used to enhance any dish!

  • Prep Time: 2 minutes

  • Makes: 6 servings

Ingredients

  • Remove casing from El Popular Chorizo links.
  • Place desired amount in a non-stick skillet.
  • Break-up El Popular Chorizo while cooking at medium heat.
  • Sauté for 7-8 minutes until the El Popular Chorizo is fully cooked or the internal temperature is 165 degrees (F).
  • Enjoy on or in any dish.
