Ingredients
  

  • 2 ounce chorizo sausage
  • 2 tablespoon butter
  • 5 large egg
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • cup pepper jack cheese shredded
  • 1 medium avocado small dice
  • 2 tablespoon sour cream
  • 2 tablespoon fresh cilantro chopped

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400F. Place a pan over medium heat, then remove the casing from the chorizo. Add the chorizo to the skillet and fry, stirring to break it up, and cook for 7-10 minutes or until thoroughly cooked. Drain well and set aside.
  • Place a cast iron skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Let it melt, then remove the pan from the heat and place on top of a towel or oven mitt. Alternatively, melt butter in a microwave and pour into the skillet. Make sure the inside of the pan is evenly coated with butter.
  • Crack eggs open directly into the pan. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Sprinkle the chorizo evenly over the eggs.
  • Spread the cheese out over the top.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until cheese is bubbling. If you like runnier yolks in your eggs, bake them for less time.
  • Serve warm with the avocado, sour cream, and garnished with cilantro, if desired.
