📝 Instructions

10 steps
1

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

2

Remove the casing from the chorizo sausage and add the meat to the skillet.

3

Cook the chorizo for about 5-7 minutes, breaking it up with a spoon until fully cooked and browned.

Add the diced red onion, garlic, and bell pepper to the skillet. Saute for another 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

5

Season the mixture with salt and black pepper, stirring to combine.

6

Lower the heat to keep warm while preparing the tortillas.

7

In a separate clean skillet, warm the corn tortillas over medium-high heat, about 30 seconds on each side, until they are pliable.

8

To assemble the tacos, take a warm tortilla and fill it with a generous scoop of the chorizo mixture.

9

Top each taco with fresh cilantro, sliced avocado, and a dollop of sour cream.

10

Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the tacos.
