What Is Chorizo?

Chorizo is a seasoned ground meat sausage. It is red in color because of paprika and spices. It has garlic, chili, and a strong flavor. When cooked, it becomes crumbly and slightly oily, which makes the eggs very tasty.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Cook the Chorizo

Place a pan on medium heat. Add the chorizo. Break it apart with a spoon while cooking.

Cook for 4–5 minutes until fully done. It should look crumbly and slightly crispy.

Remove from the pan and set aside. Do not clean the pan. The oil left in the pan adds flavor to the eggs.

Step 2: Prepare the Eggs

In a bowl, crack the eggs. Add milk, salt, and pepper. Whisk well until mixed.

Step 3: Scramble the Eggs

In the same pan, add butter or a little oil if needed.

Pour in the eggs. Cook on low heat. Stir slowly with a spatula.

Do not overcook. Eggs should be soft and slightly creamy.

Turn off the heat when they are just set.

Step 4: Warm the Tortillas

Heat each tortilla for 10–15 seconds on a dry pan or in the microwave. This makes them soft and easy to fold.

Step 5: Assemble the Wrap

Place a tortilla on a plate.

Add:

  • A spoon of scrambled eggs
  • A spoon of cooked chorizo
  • A sprinkle of cheddar cheese

Optional: add salsa or chili flakes.

Step 6: Fold the Wrap

Fold the bottom up, then fold the sides, and roll tightly like a small burrito.

Step 7: Toast the Wrap (Important)

Place the wrap seam-side down in a dry pan.

Toast for 1–2 minutes on each side until golden and slightly crispy.

This step melts the cheese and gives the wrap the Dunkin’ style finish.
