Beef-Chorizo Nacho Topping

 


This was very good and can be used for tacos, burritos, nachos; you get the idea. The ground beef I have is in 1 1/2 pound packages and the chorizo added another pound; so I adjusted the original recipe accordingly. Allow the finished product to sit in the frig for a day; I think flavors will pop more. Picture and recipe from FoodNetwork.

Ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons EVO
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 8 ounces bulk chorizo
  • Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper
  • 1 small onion
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1-8 ounce can tomato sauce
Directions:
Combine the olive oil, ground beef and chorizo in a skillet over medium high heat. Cook, stirring until browned, 5-6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. I find a potato masher works well to combine the meats.

Add the onion and garlic, stirring until softened.

Clear a space in the pan and add to tomato paste, chili powder, cumn, coriander and paprika; cook, stirring until incorporated.

Add the tomato sauce and 1 cup water. Simmer until thickened, about 6-7 minutes.
