Paleo Chorizo Potato Breakfast Bowl
These egg-free Paleo chorizo breakfast bowls with an avocado tomatillo sauce are going to blow the socks off your breakfast game! While they're absolutely delicious fresh, I wrote this recipe so that it could be easily doubled (or tripled, even) so that you can meal prep for the week in the refrigerator or even further ahead in the freezer!
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1.25 lbs chorizo
For the potatoes::
- 2 pounds gold or red-skinned potatoes cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
For the roasted peppers::
- 4 red bell peppers de-seeded, de-stemmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon sea alt
For the avocado tomatillo sauce::
- 1 avocado
- 1/8 pound tomatillos about 2 medium tomatillo, hulled and cut into large chunks
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves and stems
- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice about 2 limes
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 F. Toss the potatoes in the oil and then spread them out on a rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle the top with the salt, chili powder, and garlic powder. Place the potatoes in the oven and bake for 45-55 minutes, or until they start to brown but not burn.
- Toss the peppers in the oil and spread them out on a rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle the top with the sea salt and place in the oven for 35 minutes, or until starting to char but not burn.
- While the potatoes and peppers are cooking, brown the chorizo in a large frying pan over medium-high heat using a spoon or spatula to break it up for about 10 minutes, or until cooked through and crumbled. Set aside while the rest of the meal comes together.
- For the avocado tomatillo sauce, blend the ingredients together in a high-powered blender or bullet. If it's too thick to blend, add 1 tablespoon of water at a time until it reaches a consistency you're happy with.
- To plate, spoon an equal serving of potatoes, peppers, and chorizo into 4 different bowls. Garnish with the avocado sauce and fresh cilantro. Enjoy!
