Ingredients:

  • 2 tbsp. neutral oil

Instructions:

  • Heat oil in a skillet. When it shimmers, add chorizo, chopped into bite-sized pieces. Toss in the pan and cook, and let the fat render. Cook for 5 minutes.
  • Add shrimp. Stir for another 3 minutes or until the shrimp are pink. Sprinkle chili powder and toss again.
  • Add chorizo, shrimp, and toppings. Fold the tortilla and eat. Don’t overstuff it. It is better to simply eat a second one.
