1

In a small frying pan, cook the chorizo for 2 minutes; stir as it cooks so it doesn’t burn. Remove and combine with the rest of the ingredients, except the eggs.
2

Add the whisked eggs to the same frying pan, let cook for 2 minutes or until they start to thicken. Add the rest of the ingredients. Cook for 1 minute on low heat, with a lid on and without stirring.
3

Serve immediately with wheat tortillas or bread.

More About This Recipe

A frittata is a kind of traditional Italian omelet that's very similar to the Spanish omelet that's made with potatoes. Both are made in a frying pan or in the oven. The difference is that with the frittata the ingredients are added over the omelet once it’s almost finished so it looks like a pizza. On the other hand, in a typical Spanish potato omelet, all the ingredients are combined. This recipe is perfect for a brunch and pairs great with avocado, tomato, wheat tortillas or toast.
