Bourbon Bean And Chorizo Tacos Recipes

SUNNY'S EASY CHORIZO AND BEAN TACOS

Steps:

• In a cast-iron or heavy-bottomed pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the chorizo and garlic, breaking up the chorizo with a wooden spoon to resemble ground meat. Cook through. Add the refried beans with a little water, if necessary, to get a smooth, not-too-dry consistency, and stir to combine with the chorizo and onions.
• Make the tacos. Arrange the tortillas on a plate using two for each taco. Add the chorizo mixture, cheese, a few radish slices, a few cilantro leaves and a shake of hot sauce. Repeat for the remaining tortillas and filling.

BOURBON BEAN AND CHORIZO TACOS

Steps:

• 1. In a large, deep skillet, cook the chorizo over low heat, stirring frequently, until lightly browned and curled, about 5 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain. 2. To the fat in the skillet, add the oil, onion, and garlic and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes. 3. Add the bourbon and beans. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the beans are hot and almost all of the liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Using a potato masher or large fork, gently mash about half of the beans. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in water if the mixture is too thick. 4. Warm the tortillas according to the package's directions. Divide the beans, chorizo, cheese, and cilantro among the warm tortillas.

CHORIZO-POTATO TACOS

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl, add 1/2 cup water and season with salt. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the vegetable oil in a medium skillet over high heat, then add the squash and cook until browned but still crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and transfer to a bowl. Add the sausage to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until it begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the potatoes and cooking water and cook, tossing, until the potatoes are browned and the sausage is cooked through, 5 to 6 more minutes. Season with salt.
• Combine the tomatoes, scallion, jalapeno and cilantro in a bowl and season with salt. Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or wrap in a damp towel and warm in the microwave, about 1 minute. Fill with the squash and chorizo mixture and sprinkle with the cheese and salsa. Top with sour cream and/or guacamole, if desired.
