• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 4 cloves garlic, chopped

Services : 4 peoples

PREPARATION :

Pre-heat the oven to 425°F.

In a 10-inch, nonstick, ovenproof skillet, heat the EVOO, two turns of the pan, over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and lightly brown, 2-3 minutes. Add the tomatoes, onion, garlic, bell pepper, chili pepper, salt and pepper; cook for 5 minutes. Scatter in the cilantro or parsley and tortilla chips. Add the eggs and season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine; let the eggs settle, then cook until set at the edges (some of the tortilla chips will pop up).
Transfer the tortilla to the oven and bake until cooked through, 15-18 minutes. Turn the oven to broil. Top the tortilla with the cheese and melt under the broiler. Pass the hot sauce at the table.
