- Reserve a bit (½ tbsp-1 tbsp) of the chorizo fat to cook with the potatoes.
- Par boil potatoes for 10 minutes prior to sautéing to speed up cooking time.
- Cover potatoes while they cook.
- Customize this dish to your liking and add and remove as you see fit.

Roasted Poblano Tomatillo Sauce
This sauce is optional and the dish is good as is! If you have minutes to spare make this roasted pepper sauce and you'll see why it's my favorite! By and large, this sauce is extremely universal and is becoming a staple in my home.
In detail, here's how easily it comes together! Start by preheating your oven to 425 degrees. Next, on a lined baking sheet, add your poblano pepper, jalapeno, tomatillo and garlic. Then season with with salt and olive oil, massage thoroughly and roast for up to 10 minutes until veggies are charred and cooked through.
Now that the veggies are roasted, grab your blender and place cooled- roasted ingredients, cilantro, bouillon, Mexican crema and begin with ¼ water and blend until smooth. Adjust flavor by adding more bouillon flavor or salt and pepper. Last, depending on desired thinness or thickness of sauce, add more water starting at one tablespoon at a time.
The skillet comes together fairly easy and depending on your preference, you can par cook your potatoes for ten minutes or cook directly in the sauté' pan.
Here's how to prepare the potato hash!
First, using a large skillet on medium high heat, crumble and brown chorizo until cooked through. Drain fat if necessary and place chorizo in a bowl and set aside.
Second, in the same skillet on medium/high heat, add cooking oil and sauté potatoes for at least ten minutes. At the same time, constantly stir and add water (up to ¼ cup at a time) as needed to release bits from the pan if needed.
Third, cover while cooking to steam potatoes and to help speed up cooking time. After potatoes begin to cook down, add additional hash ingredients until cooked through.
Preparing the Easy Chorizo Breakfast Hash With Poblano Sauce continued.
Then add cooked chorizo and cajun seasoning to the pot and stir ingredients until cooked through and combined. Using a large spoon, create "craters" in the dish to create space to cook the eggs. Carefully crack 3-4 eggs in each crater allowing space for each egg to cook.
Next, place in the oven for eggs to cook and remove from oven and let cool. Lastly, top with roasted poblano tomatillo cream sauce and top with additional fresh parsley or cilantro for garnish and enjoy!
