[0 - 4] today I'm going to show you three recipes for super craveable breakfast tacos that anyone
[4 - 10] can make in 15 minutes before they need to get to work. The first one is going to be a hash
[10 - 15] brown Taco. To get started I'll grab a medium sized Russet potato and if you're wondering no
[15 - 20] Yukon Golds wouldn't be a good sub here they're too wet and they won't get crisp now once this
[20 - 25] rusted is peeled I'll grab my box grater and Shred the potato down on the largest hold sites
[25 - 31] one medium to large russet should make enough hash browns for two huge or four medium-sized
[31 - 36] tacos and once it's grated I'll need to get rid of all this excessive potato juice that'll stop
[36 - 40] crispiness from happening so over at the sink I'll just squeeze these potato shreds until I've gotten
[40 - 45] most of that water out. There we go now I'll head over to the stove and drop a non-stick pan over
[45 - 50] medium high heat. I'm using a 12 incher here because more surface area means the potatoes
[50 - 55] will crisp up faster but also it will allow us to cook the hash browns alongside some fried
[55 - 59] eggs I'll also grab a second pan here and throw that over low heat this is going to act as my
[59 - 65] Comal or The Griddle that I'll use to heat up my tortilla in just a second once this first pan is
[65 - 69] hot I'll add in a slightly above average amount of olive oil then I'll drop in my squeezed potatoes
[69 - 74] I'll add in a strong pinch of salt and then a bunch of black pepper from there I'll come back
[74 - 78] and spread that out in the pan and then use my spatula to press the potatoes into the pan this
[78 - 83] will ensure maximum Browning now I'll just crisp these up for about eight to ten minutes but I'll
[83 - 88] check back in three to four with that little bit of downtime I'm gonna prep the rest of my taco
[88 - 93] filling for that I'll need some cheese for this Taco I'm using the best melting cheese known to
[93 - 99] tacos and quesadillas actually Chihuahua cheese it tastes kind of like aged mozzarella but it's
[99 - 104] a little bit gooier and really glues things together for four very full tacos I'll need
[104 - 108] about a Cup's worth of this cheese grated on the largest hold sides of my box grater back over at
[108 - 113] the stove my hash browns have taken on some nice color on the first side so I'll give them a flip
[113 - 117] and then I'll fry them on the back side for two or three minutes and once they've taken on some
[117 - 123] color on that side I'll break them up and then fry them for a minute or two break them apart fry them
[123 - 127] for another minute or two and I'll repeat this for about eight to ten minutes until the potatoes are
[127 - 132] browned crisped up and cooked all the way through and once these potatoes are Looking hash browned
[132 - 137] I'm gonna scoot them to the back of my non-stick pan then sneak a little more oil up front then
[137 - 142] drop in an egg I'll hit that with a generous pinch of salt and then I'll give it a hard fry
[142 - 147] to get a crispy Brown edge around the Bottom now while that sizzles I'll drop a white corn tortilla
[147 - 151] into the pan that's rolling over low heat on the other side of my stove I'll mention that there's
[151 - 157] nothing authentic about these tacos so if you prefer the wonderful soft fluffy sweetness of
[157 - 163] a flour tortilla please use those instead it was a close call for me personally but I opted for
[163 - 168] the corn so that Lauren could eat them because she's gluten free oh yeah now once this tortilla
[168 - 174] is heated on the first side I'll flip it over then add a few pinches of my chihuahua melting cheese
[174 - 179] and then pop on a lid to help it melt melt the cheese on the inside of a taco is going to make
[179 - 185] this thing quesadilla-esque which is as sick as it sounds you'll see in a second over at my hash
[185 - 190] browns you can see that my singular egg here is bubbly and fried around the edges so I'll flip
[190 - 194] it over and then fry it hard on the back side for another one to two minutes the texture that I'm
[194 - 199] looking for with the yolk here is gelled around the outside and just barely runny in the middle
[199 - 204] that way the yolk will help sauce the taco and once my potatoes are all crisped up and my egg is
[204 - 209] perfectly fried I'm gonna build this thing first thing down is my cheesy quesadilla style tortilla
[210 - 215] then I'll scoop out about 1 4 of the hash browns that we just made next my fried egg goes down
[215 - 222] then some pre-made pico de gallo but fry you're a chef you should just make it yourself no it's a
[222 - 227] Wednesday morning and I need to get back to work recording the voiceover for this video it is it
[227 - 233] the best tasting pico de gallo in the world no but does it make this Taco taste delicious and fresh
[233 - 238] yes behind the Pico I'll drop on some sort of hot sauce or taco sauce to bring some moisture acidity
[238 - 243] and heat then I'll add a strong pinch of chopped cilantro to make it taste fresh and that's not
[243 - 251] just any breakfast taco you guys it's quesadilla inspired let's have a taste that Pico makes this
[251 - 257] Taco so fresh it kind of lightens up the heaviness from the potato the cheese and the fried egg the
[257 - 261] combination of those three things by the way makes it taste kind of like a diner breakfast which is
[261 - 267] so sick and the crispy potato in here kind of reminds me of a breakfast burrito the one with
[267 - 274] tater tots that I did a few weeks ago overall it's a 9.2 out of 10. now I've got two more breakfast
[274 - 279] tacos to show you guys the second one is possibly the best taco I've had in the last year but first
[279 - 285] we're gonna make a bean and bacon breakfast taco to get started I'll grab four slices of thick cut
[285 - 290] bacon and when I say thick I mean slices that are about one ounce a piece if your bacon is skinnier
[290 - 295] use eight slices instead of four to cut these I'll just slice them in half and then turn that
[295 - 300] 90 degrees and cut into chunky square-ish pieces once it's cut up I'll move it over to a medium
[300 - 306] high heat pan without oil because bacon brings its own and then I'll top it with a lid this
[306 - 311] is a little restaurant trick for rendering bacon faster having a lid on it dramatically raises the
[311 - 315] temperature around the bacon and really speeds up the process of melting out the fat and after three
[315 - 321] to five minutes of sauteing under a lid this bacon is mostly rendered and is now starting to fry in
[321 - 326] its own fat so I'll give it a stir and continue to crisp it up for another two to three minutes and
[326 - 332] after eight to nine minutes in total this bacon is a deep reddish brown and it's super crispy so I'll
[332 - 336] move this over to a plate and drain it on a paper towel next I'm going to heat up one of my favorite
[336 - 341] time saving Pantry items of all time to bring some delicious creaminess to this Taco but first I'm
[341 - 346] going to drop this non-stick pan back on the stove over medium heat and thank the people who make it
[346 - 352] made in for sponsoring this video if you haven't heard of a maiden designs professional quality
[352 - 356] products for the home cook but their products are also used in multiple three Michelin starred
[356 - 361] kitchens and my kitchen for the last year a lot of you guys know by now that I really like my
[361 - 366] non-stick pans because I'm a sucker for something that's easy to clean and performs day in and day
[366 - 372] out and in my opinion truly maiden's performance non-stick collection is a prime example of what
[372 - 377] non-stick cookware should be it's oven safe up to 500 F the non-stick surface is double cured
[377 - 381] and so far these pans have held up really well to the intense daily wear and tear that I put
[381 - 386] them through on this channel the pans themselves use the same five ply design of maiden's stainless
[386 - 391] line that I'm also a huge fan of so you know you're getting a nice high quality hand with
[391 - 397] even Heating and a non-stick coating which I'm told past 100 of third parties health safety
[397 - 403] and non-toxic tests in both the U.S and Europe I actually use it made in products every single day
[403 - 408] and I really enjoy cooking with them so to make a cookware upgrade or just buy a few pieces that
[408 - 413] you really love use the link in my description and you'll save 10 off your first order over a
[413 - 419] hundred bucks so that time saving Pantry item that I mentioned is a can of refried beans you
[419 - 423] guys know what I'm talking about they're delicious they're creamy and they're available I like these
[423 - 428] at siete brand beans personally because they're not full of hydrogenated fat or other junk and
[428 - 433] they taste very close to what I would make myself whatever brand you decide to use you probably want
[433 - 439] to doctor them up to do that I'll grab a can and plop them into a bowl then I'll throw that into
[439 - 444] the microwave under a damp paper towel and nuke it for two minutes Steam and beans baby once they're
[444 - 448] hot I'll add in the juice of half of a lime a strong pinch of cumin a little garlic powder a
[448 - 453] little onion powder some red chill really Flakes a strong pinch of salt and then a little bit of
[453 - 457] cracked black pepper I'll give that a quick stir and it's looking a little pasty so I'll come back
[457 - 463] and add like maybe a half cups worth of water I'll stir that in until it's creamy and then I'll give
[463 - 469] it a taste oh yeah these beans are zippy a little bit spiced and way more well seasoned than they
[469 - 474] were straight out of the can they're gonna make this breakfast taco taste like a burrito which I
[474 - 480] think is really cool now once I've got hot beans and rendered bacon I'm gonna drop a tortilla in My
[480 - 485] Pan and then fry my egg for this Taco I'm gonna cook the egg exactly the same as I did for taco
[485 - 490] one and after three to four minutes I've got a crispy browned egg with a runny yolk so it's time
[490 - 496] to build my taco I'll drop my floppy hot tortilla then I'll smear on some of my doctored up beans
[496 - 501] again don't be afraid to use canned they taste good no one gets an award for the most work done
[501 - 507] on a weekday breakfast next I'll drop one fourth of my rendered crispy bacon then my crispy fried
[507 - 513] egg I'll top that with another Banger of a pantry ingredient chili crisp it's spicy crunchy a little
[513 - 518] bit tart and usually has some sort of numbing Szechuan Vibe going on sub Sriracha if you don't
[518 - 523] got no chili crisp next I'll add on some crumbly light queso fresco to bring some cheesiness then
[523 - 528] some chopped fresh cilantro and then finally some pickled red onions I tend to keep these in my
[528 - 533] fridge about 50 of the time because they're super easy to make and very versatile and if you want to
[533 - 537] make them I'll link to a video down below where I show the entire simple process from start to
[537 - 542] finish but if you don't have pickled Reds on hand I would say Sub in pickled jalapenos to bring some
[542 - 547] acidity as well as some additional heat and that is a rich but not heavy bean and bacon breakfast
[547 - 554] taco those beans are so creamy and they kind of contrast that crispy salty bacon really well they
[554 - 559] team up and make something super rich and unctuous but it's not so heavy that you're gonna have to
[559 - 563] take a nap at like 11 30 a.m there's plenty of acidity here to balance that richness to it the
[563 - 568] pickled red onions they're crispy they're sweet they're tart and they really tie the whole thing
[568 - 575] together don't skimp on those I'd say overall this is like a pretty banging taco 8.8 out of 10.
[576 - 584] 8.9 very good okay last taco probably my favorite of the entire year the chorizo Taco to make it
[584 - 589] I'll grab one stick of Mexican chorizo you'll want the stuff that looks like red meat paste
[589 - 595] in a tube I've got no idea what's actually in there but I know that I like it a lot over at
[595 - 600] the stove into a medium heat nonstick pan I'll squeeze in just over half of this tube for about
[600 - 606] five ounces 135 grams next I'll stir to get that spread out in the pan then I'll fry it to render
[606 - 611] out any excessive fat and to Brown it off that'll take three to four minutes every 30 seconds or so
[611 - 615] I'll crumble it with my spatula to make sure that the texture is being crumbled down that
[615 - 620] helps the sausage unify with the eggs that we're dropping in later on and you'll see why that's a
[620 - 624] good thing in just a second okay I'm gonna let this fry for another minute or two and
[624 - 630] then quickly step away to make something that is guacamole like abuela's look away this is going
[630 - 635] to be quick and dirty into a bowl I'll squeeze two very ripe avocados oh make sure to get that little
[635 - 641] butthole thing out of there yuck then I'll squeeze in one whole lime a pinch of garlic powder a pinch
[641 - 646] of onion powder some chili flakes to replace the jalapenos you know they're kind of similar then
[646 - 651] a strong pinch of salt and then I'll just Mash that a little bit to mix things together but I'll
[651 - 656] keep it kind of chunky and that's weekday morning guacamole it's got some fresh lime flavor it's a
[656 - 661] little bit garlicky it only takes like one minute and it's close enough back over at the stove my
[661 - 666] chorizo is all browned up and rented out so it's time for eggs I'll just crack four of those into
[666 - 670] a little dish whip them up with my coffee frother and then I'll add them into the pan alongside the
[670 - 676] chorizo I'll scramble everything together here for a minute or two while crumbling down both
[676 - 682] the eggs and the chorizo the final result should be a homogeneous mix of lightly scrambled eggs and
[682 - 688] fatty spicy orange sausage it should be chorizo egg as in one word a unified thing now once the
[688 - 693] eggs are cooked through and everything's brought together in the pan here it's time to build this
[693 - 698] Taco for that onto a fresh and floppy tortilla I'll drop a spoonful of my guac in in quotes
[698 - 704] I'll spread that around then I'll drop on a fourth of my chorizo eggs on top of that I'll squeeze a
[704 - 710] tablespoon or two of bright fresh salsa I'm using some homemade tomatillo salsa like the pickled red
[710 - 714] onions I generally keep this in my fridge because it's easy and lasts a long time to make it I just
[714 - 719] combine tomatillos onions garlic and poblanos with some water in a little saucepan simmered
[719 - 724] until tender then pureed with salt and cilantro full recipe is on my website and I'll link to that
[724 - 730] down below behind the fresh green salsa I'll add on some crumbly queso fresco and then some fresh
[730 - 735] cilantro and there we go chorizo and egg is a classic combination for a reason you guys it's
[735 - 741] Savory it's Porky it's spicy and the eggs temper the intensity of that sausage perfectly this has
[741 - 746] everything that you could want in a breakfast it's got a little meat it's got a little sauce a
[746 - 752] little acid it's creamy and it's not too heavy the chorizo really freaking hits man oh my God it's
[752 - 760] salty Savory and it's kind of a little something that's hard to describe chorizo is a weird food
[760 - 768] but it's one of my favorites score for this taco 9.6 I want to go higher I feel emotionally quite
[768 - 773] attached to this Taco but if you go higher than a 9.6 there's nowhere to go baby you've basically
[773 - 778] maxed it out and I want to believe that a breakfast taco could get better than this although
[778 - 783] looking at it I don't know so that's three very easy to eat cute breakfast tacos that literally
[783 - 788] anyone can make in 15 minutes before work and if you're looking for some more tasty chefed
