Sweet Potato Chorizo Hash makes a great fall low carb breakfast. Tons of flavor and spice.
Tons Of Flavor
The ingredients in this recipe combine to make a spicy hash with tons of flavor. There’s red bell pepper, onion, jalapeno, black beans, and spices. The spiciness of Mexican chorizo wonderfully complements the sweetness of sweet potatoes.
Chorizo
Be sure to get the Mexican-style chorizo instead of Spanish chorizo. Mexican chorizo is ground and uncooked. It has lots of paprika, ground chile and garlic added.
Cast Iron Pan
A cast iron pan is my favorite for making hashes. Using a well-seasoned pan, you can get by with adding a minimum amount of oil. Cast iron retains heat really well and does a great job of caramelizing vegetables.
Add Some Toppings
For even more flavor, I add chopped fresh cilantro and diced avocado before serving. Salsa, guacamole, and sour cream are other great topping ideas. For even more heat, serve with Cholulu Hot Sauce.
Sweet Potato Chorizo Hash Recipe Tip
To get the sweet potatoes really browned and crispy, do NOT stir them too much. Leave them alone until they are browned on the bottom before giving them their first stir.
Storage
Leftover chorizo hash will keep really well in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It can be reheated in a microwave or air fryer. The eggs don’t keep as well so I recommend that when you make the hash, you only add the amount of eggs you plan on eating right away. Cook fresh eggs to go with any leftovers.
