Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F.
    Wash and dry all produce.
  • Zest, then juice half the lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges.
  • Roughly chop cilantro.
  • Peel, then cut onion into 1/8-inch pieces.
  • Cut tomato into 1/4-inch pieces.
Make salsa
2
  • To a medium bowl, add tomatoes, lime juice, half the cilantro, a quarter of the onions, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar and 1 tsp (2 tsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
Cook chorizo
3
  • Heat a medium non-stick pan (large pan for 4 servings) over medium-high. When hot, add 1 tsp (2 tsp) oil, chorizo, Tex-Mex paste, tomato sauce base and remaining onions. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Cook for 4-6 min, breaking up chorizo into smaller pieces, until no pink remains.**
  • Stir in 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water. Remove from heat.
Finish chorizo
4
  • While chorizo cooks, snip one corner of tortilla chip bag. Using hands or a rolling pin, crush into bite-sized pieces.
  • Remove the pan from heat. Sprinkle crushed tortilla chips and cheese over top.
  • Bake in the middle of the oven for 3-5 min, until cheese is melted.
Warm rice
5
  • While chorizo bakes, massage the pouch of rice to separate the grains.
  • Heat rice in the microwave for 2 min, as indicated on the back of the package. (NOTE: If you don’t have a microwave, stir-fry rice in a hot non-stick pan with a splash of water for 3 min, until heated through.)
  • To a large bowl, add rice, lime zest, remaining cilantro and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter. Stir to combine.
Finish and serve
6
  • Divide rice between bowls.
  • Top with chorizo-tortilla mixture, salsa and sour cream.

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavor: Many enjoyed the dish's taste, with some finding it deliciously flavorful; others felt it needed more dimension or spice.
  • Ease of prep: Customers appreciated the quick and easy preparation, especially the time-saving microwaveable rice.
  • Suggestions: Consider adding black beans or bell peppers for more substance; reduce onion quantity if you find it overpowering.
  • Portions: Some found the rice portion too small; consider using two pouches or adding more vegetables for a heartier meal.
  • Texture: The crunchy tortilla chips were a hit, but add them after baking to maintain crispness.
  • Leftovers: Reheats well in an air fryer, though some noted the chips can get soggy when stored.
