Method

1

Peel the plantain and slice it into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Slice or crumble the chorizo.

2

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When shimmering, add plantain slices in a single layer and fry 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crispy. Transfer to paper towels.

3

In the same skillet, cook chorizo over medium heat until browned and cooked through, 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain excess fat if needed.

4

Lightly toast the tortilla or bread. Arrange crispy plantain and cooked chorizo on top.

5

Top with red onion, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice. Serve with hot sauce on the side or drizzled over.
