Ingredients

4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 fresh chorizo sausages, cut into slices
3 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 medium onion, chopped
8 large eggs
1/2 cup milk
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup mixed baby greens, for garnish
1/2 lemon, juiced

Directions

Heat the oven to 375 degrees F.

Pour 3 tablespoons olive oil into a 12-inch non stick, ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and fry for 5 minutes; add the potato and onion and fry until the onions start to soften, about 5 minutes. Reduce the heat and cover the skillet; cook until the potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes. Remove the cover, raise the heat, and cook until the potatoes are brown and crispy, about another 5 minutes. Meanwhile break the eggs into a large bowl, add the milk, season with salt and pepper, and whisk until frothy. Pour the egg mixture into the pan, shaking the pan to distribute the eggs evenly. Put the pan into the oven and cook until puffy and set, about 12 to 15 minutes. Turn out onto a cutting board and let it cool to room temperature. Toss the baby greens with the remaining oil and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Place the greens on top of the tortilla, cut it into thin wedges, and serve.

If your going to make this recipe do not add any salt!!! The chorizo/potatoe mixture was pretty good going in, but after... adding the eggs (only a small pinch of salt added, abouy an 1/8 tsp) and cooking in the oven it was too salty to eat...Read more

Fantastic!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this (minus the greens) as an alternative to a sausage breafast strata I've been making for years. This was even... better and my guests loved it. I sauted the potatoes, onion and sausage two days ahead of time, then reheated them in the pan before adding the egg mixture and baking. Easy and delicious.Read more
