Chourico Croissants
Recipe created for Mello's Chourico by Rosie Hatch (Instagram)
INGREDIENTS:
½ pound Mello’s Ground Chourico
4 butter croissants, sliced in half
5 eggs
1 tbsp milk
1 tsp salt
4 slices cheddar cheese
3 tbsp mayonnaise
Cracked pepper
INSTRUCTIONS:
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, heat a bit of oil then add eggs and milk. Whisk to combine and allow to cook through making scrambled eggs. Sprinkle with salt and set aside.
In a separate pan, heat oil and cook ground chourico until hot.
Construct croissants by adding cheese to the bottom, then chourico, then eggs. Add a bit of mayo to the inside of the top layer of the croissant to help hold it together.
Bake at 350°F for 5-8 minutes or until cheese is melted and tops are crispy. Garnish with cracked pepper.
