Chori-Pollo

Pin It


Chori-Pollo aka Chorizo and Chicken.  I personally love chorizo!  I can eat it with eggs or put it in my stuffing.  When I’ve been out cruising the local Mexican restaurants I figured I’d concoct my own recipe to enjoy this dish at home.  Some people find the taste of chorizo to be spicy, I don’t think it’s very spicy but that’s just a friendly warning J

Ingredients:

1 lb. (or so) chicken breast

1 package chorizo

1 packet of Sazón Goya seasoning

1 can pineapple chunks

1 jar cheese & salsa dip

1 package tortillas

1 can refried beans

1 package Mexican or Taco Rice

1 bag tortilla chips

1.  Cook your refried beans and rice according to their package. (I would start with cooking the beans and rice first so that while they are cooking you can work on the main dish.)

2. Cook the chorizo in a large skillet.  (Tip: When the chorizo is finished scoop out the meat and leave the “juice” in the pan).

3. Cut up the chicken breast into strips or cubes.

4.  Cook your cut up chicken in the “juice” and add one packet of Sazón Goya seasoning.  Stir this mixture together.  (Tip: When the chicken is done scoop out the meat and leave the “juice” in the pan).

5. Cook ½ - 1 can of pineapple in the “juice” just long enough that it isn’t super mushy.  So maybe 5 or so minutes on each side.

6. Remove pineapple from skillet and dump out the “juice.”

7.  Combine chorizo, chicken, pineapple, and half of the jar of cheese and salsa dip in the original skillet or a bowl.

8. Heat up a tortilla (in the microwave or oven).

9. Layer tortilla with refried beans, rice, then your chicken/chorizo/pineapple/cheese mix on top.
10. Fold up your tortilla and enjoy!

11.  Serve with a side of tortilla chips and cheese and salsa dip.


Enjoy!
