This Chorizo Burrito Skillet is incredibly easy to pull off and tastes extraordinary! A family-pleasing meal that is ready in 30 minutes.
I’m so excited to share with you today’s recipe because it’s so good and flavorful. This Chorizo Burrito Skillet is loaded with all the delicious flavors you love in a burrito but it’s all cooked in a skillet. Nothing to roll, fret, or fuss over.
Chorizo has had a high demand in our kitchen for the past several months. All started when my husband found delicious chorizo in a local grocery store since then we have been hooked. We have made chorizo everything… so this is how this dish was born.
Drumdrools, please….
Meet my Chorizo Burrito Skillet!!!
My favorite thing about this Chorizo Burrito Skillet is that it comes together in just about 30 minutes. It’s also very flexible since you can amp up the spice, if you like the heat, or add some cooked shredded chicken or shrimp.
My family is big fans of the corn, black beans, pepper, cilantro, and lime combination going on in this dish. I wanted to crank things up a notch by adding RO*TEL tomatoes. I love them because they have enough zest to kick up every breakfast, lunch, dinner and, of course, snack! No matter what day of the week it is, RO*TEL always help me to put a spicy spin on my favorite dish.

It’s easy, quick, and all-in-one, with all the Mexican, bold flavors you love…
The rice is cooked to a tender perfection.
For best results, I suggest serving the tortillas on the side. I have seen some recipes that add the tortillas to the skillet, but to be honest, I didn’t even think about that because I HATE soggy tortillas.
I went a little easy on the topping because, as you might know, my picky eaters are always looking for excuses to not eat, but feel free to top this amazing skillet with guacamole, sour cream, or salsa. YUM.
This Chorizo Burrito Skillet could not. be. easier.
Simply toss it all into one big skillet, cook… y LISTO! A great meal for the whole family to love.
Enjoy!
