Delicious Chorizo & Soft-Boiled Egg Salad Recipe

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 200 grams chorizo sausage (sliced)
  • 4 large eggs (soft-boiled)
  • 4 cups mixed salad greens
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes (halved)
  • 1 medium red onion (thinly sliced)
  • 1 avocado (sliced)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • to taste salt and pepper

Instructions

6 steps

  1. Prepare the Eggs

    Bring a pot of water to a boil and gently add the eggs. Boil for 6-7 minutes for soft-boiled eggs, then transfer to an ice bath to cool.

    Timing is crucial for achieving the perfect soft-boiled egg.
  2. Cook the Chorizo

    In a skillet over medium heat, add the sliced chorizo. Cook until browned and crispy, about 5-7 minutes.

    Ensure that the skillet is hot enough to render the fat from the chorizo.
  3. Combine Salad Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the mixed salad greens, cherry tomatoes, and red onion.

    Toss the salad lightly to mix the ingredients evenly.
  4. Prepare the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and pepper.

    Adjust the seasoning to your taste preference.
  5. Assemble the Salad

    Slice the soft-boiled eggs and add them to the salad bowl along with the cooked chorizo.

    Arrange the eggs on top for an attractive presentation.
  6. Dress and Serve

    Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently. Serve immediately.

    Serve with crusty bread for a complete meal.
