Breakfast enchiladas are not just for breakfast; Ree also loves to serve them at her brunch parties. They can be prepared in advance and placed on a buffet table, ready for guests to help themselves.

Ingredients
- 12 ounces chorizo
- 1 small onion, diced
- 6 large eggs
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- pinch kosher salt
- pinch freshly ground black pepper
- pinch paprika
- 2 tablespoons salted butter
- two 15-ounce cans red enchilada sauce
- 16 small corn tortillas, charred over the flame of the stove
- 1 1/2 cups jalapeño pepper jack cheese
- 1 cup fresh cilantro
- 1 cup salsa
- 1 cup sour cream
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Place the chorizo and onion in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, then fry until browned and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove to a plate and set aside.
- Beat together the eggs, sour cream, salt, pepper and paprika in a bowl. Add the butter to the skillet and allow to melt, then add the egg mixture and scramble the eggs until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and set aside.
- Grab a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and add half of a can of the enchilada sauce to the dish and the other half to a bowl. One at a time, dip each tortilla into the sauce in the bowl. Set the sauce-soaked tortilla on a plate. Spoon on approximately 2 tablespoons each of the chorizo mixture and the eggs. Roll up the tortilla to contain the filling inside.
- Place the tortilla seam-side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the rest of the tortillas and pour the other can of enchilada sauce over the top. End with a generous covering of the cheese.
- Bake until the cheese has melted and the sauce is bubbling, 12 to 14 minutes. Let sit for 8 to 10 minutes, then serve the enchiladas with the cilantro, salsa and sour cream on the side.
