Add chorizo (about 1.5 pounds) to the pan and fry with the veggies until cooked through.

3

Add diced golden potatoes to the chorizo and veggies, tossing to coat in the marinade and cooking until they absorb flavors.

Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, and a bit of cilantro and cheese, mixing well.

5

In a separate pot, prepare to scramble eggs (24 to 30) and add hot sauce before cooking.

Heat another pan over medium flame and add oil for frying taco shells, seasoning the oil with fajita seasoning.

7

Fry the taco shells until browned, turning them as needed, then drain on paper towels.
