Description
A hearty and satisfying breakfast sandwich made with savory chorizo, fluffy scrambled eggs, melted cheddar cheese, and toasted rolls, perfect for energizing mornings or relaxed brunches.
Ingredients
- Chorizo sausage: 200 grams, casing removed
- Eggs: 4 large
- Milk: 2 tablespoons
- Cheddar cheese: 4 slices or 100 grams shredded
- Sandwich rolls: 4 rolls, split in half
- Butter: 1 tablespoon
- Salt: 0.25 teaspoon
- Black pepper: 0.25 teaspoon
Instructions
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and cook the chorizo for 5 to 7 minutes, breaking it apart until browned and fully cooked, then transfer to a plate.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs with milk, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
- Reduce the skillet heat to medium-low, pour in the eggs, and cook gently while stirring until soft and fluffy.
- Lightly butter the cut sides of the sandwich rolls and toast until golden and warm.
- Assemble the sandwiches by layering scrambled eggs on the bottom halves of the rolls, topping with chorizo and cheddar cheese.
- Close the sandwiches and serve immediately while hot and melty.
Notes
- Cook the eggs over low heat to keep them soft and creamy.
- Toast the rolls lightly so they stay crisp without drying out.
- Drain excess fat from the chorizo if needed for a balanced texture.
- Assemble the sandwiches while all components are warm so the cheese melts naturally.
