Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
-
For the biscuits: Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a food processor. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the cheese and chiles. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and beaten egg. Add the liquid mixture to the flour mixture and thoroughly combine until the dough forms a ball.
-
Flour a dry work surface so the dough doesn't stick to it. Roll the dough out to 1/2-inch thickness. Using a medium round cookie cutter, cut out biscuits and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake until golden, about 13 minutes.
-
For the chorizo gravy: Heat the vegetable oil in a medium saucepan and sweat the onions until translucent. Add the chiles and garlic and cook for 3 minutes. Add the chorizo and cook until browned. Add the flour and cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir in the chicken stock and bring to a light boil over medium to high heat. Simmer for 15 minutes to cook out the raw flour taste. Adjust the consistency with cream. Season with salt and pepper.
-
For the pico de gallo: Mix together the tomatoes, garlic, jalapenos, chipotle, onions, cilantro and lime juice. Season with salt and pepper.
-
To serve, plate up the warm biscuits (2 per serving) and top with cheesy scrambled eggs, chorizo gravy, cotija cheese and pico de gallo.
