Chori Pollo (Chorizo Chicken) is my restaurant remake of my son’s favorite Mexican entree. It is an easy family meal that’s filled with fun and flavor.
Chori Pollo is spicy chorizo sausage, chicken, spices, and cheese recipe. It’s a very easy, unassuming recipe that’s incredibly flavorful. Additionally, it’s tasty in tacos, nachos & breakfast burritos. Furthermore, you can eat it in soft or hard taco shells, with chips, over rice or greens.
Especially important, a squeeze of lime and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro always makes Chori Pollo better so I highly recommend those two ingredients.
As well, it’s keto friendly and low carb if you forego the taco shells or chips.

Are you familiar with chorizo? Chorizo is a Spanish pork sausage that’s most often cured with smoked paprika. It’s available in both sweet and hot versions. I in casings or ground and can be eaten as a sliced meat or cooked into main dishes such as Chori Pollo (Chorizo Chicken).
Once you try chorizo, you’ll find other recipes you want to use it in. One of my favorite, especially this time of year when there’s so much football going on, is Spicy Chorizo Queso Dip. Click over there and give that recipe a try as well.
