Authentic Spanish Chorizo and Eggs | Duelos y Quebrantos Recipe
These Spanish chorizo and eggs, known as duelos y quebrantos, are seriously what comfort food is all about. We’re talking easy to make, a ton of great flavors, and all done in about 15 minutes. Serve this dish for breakfast, lunch, or even dinner. And always next to a crunchy baguette for the ultimate Spanish treat.
To make this recipe, I used uncured Spanish chorizo. You can use any type of chorizo you like. Just make sure it’s firm. Otherwise, when you cook it, it will lose its shape and fall apart. As for the eggs, I used cage-free organic eggs. But any type of eggs can be used. However, the higher the quality of the ingredients, the better the overall flavor.
As for the rest of the ingredients, I added some sliced onions and sliced garlic. Which is very typical of this dish. You can omit these ingredients if you like. If you want a spicy kick, either use spicy chorizo or add a pinch of crushed red pepper to the whisked eggs.
TIPS & TRICKS to Make this Recipe: The secret to this dish is to not overcook the eggs. About 2 to 3 minutes while mixing continuously on a low heat should do the trick. If you overcook the eggs, they will end up with a rubbery texture. And remember, when you remove the pan from the heat, the eggs continue to cook.
