Chorizo and Poblano Paleo Breakfast Skillet

I am a skillet machine. The proof is over at my Instagram account.

Alright, day four of the Cinco De Mayo Paleo Recipe celebration. We have been all over skillets here at The Paleo Fix household recently. What does that mean? Time for a paleo breakfast skillet. Not only do they taste amazing, but as soon as we realized that you can cook and eat out of one dish it has been at least a weekly occurrence.

It is simple, tasty, and can be eaten at any time of the day. We figured what better way to celebrate Cinco than making an amazing chorizo and bacon filled Sunday skillet? Chorizo can be a questionable meat, so go get yours at a reputable local butcher.

If (when) you end up making this, let me know via social media on Twitter and Instagram by tagging me at @dranthonygustin and hashtag #cooklikeag so I can check you out!

Here’s how to make it:

DESCRIPTION:
Preparation: 10m
Cook Time: 30m
Serves: 2

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 pound chorizo
  • 1/2 cup bone broth (optional)
  • 1/2 avocado
  • 2 peppers, sliced (poblano, jalapeno, anaheim, etc)
  • 8 mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup kale, sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • 4-5 pastured eggs
  • 4 slices bacon, chopped
  • sea salt

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Cook the bacon and chorizo on a low heat. Wait until they get slightly crispy and browned before moving to step two. It is also assumed that you sourced your meat appropriately – so DO NOT dump out any of that wonderful fat that has accumulated while cooking the meat!
  2. Add the onions, peppers and garlic and cook over low heat until they become soft and slightly translucent. If things start sticking too much, add in a few splashes of bone broth to cook the veggies down a little more. Don’t overdo it here, we don’t want skillet soup.
  3. The kale and the mushrooms can be sliced however you like. They cook rather quickly so just add them in and toss then move on to step four.
  4. Set the oven to 350F and toss the skillet in. Depending on how you like your eggs, this will take 8-12 mins.
  5. Remove the skillet when the eggs are done and top with whatever type of condiments you like – cilantro and avocado seem like a must and you can even use Ancho Chile Sauce or Fresh Roasted Salsa recipes we’ve had before! As mentioned before, the best part about this dish is eating straight out of the pan.
