Ingredients For Chorizo Tacos
Chorizo – Choose fresh, raw chorizo, which is different from a Spanish dried chorizo (more similar to salami). With a handful of spices and some ground pork, you can also make homemade chorizo to use in this recipe.
Potatoes – Use any variety of potato (or frozen diced potatoes with or without bell peppers and onions!
Tortillas – Small, ‘street’ sized corn tortillas are my first choice for chorizo tacos. Other sizes of corn or flour tortillas can be used if you want to make quesadillas.
