Ingredients

  • Chorizo - 200 grams
  • Eggs - 4 large
  • Heavy cream - 30 ml
  • Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
  • Cheddar cheese, shredded - 50 grams
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped - 2 tablespoons
  • Lime - 1, cut into wedges
  • Low-carb tortillas - 2

Steps

  1. In a skillet over medium heat, add the chorizo and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula.
  2. While the chorizo is cooking, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream in a bowl until well combined.
  3. Once the chorizo is fully cooked, reduce the heat to low and pour in the egg mixture. Stir gently until the eggs are just set, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted.
  5. In a separate pan, warm the low-carb tortillas over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.
  6. To assemble, place a generous portion of the chorizo and egg mixture onto each tortilla, then top with fresh cilantro.
  7. Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.
