How to make it 

For the tacos: In a large non-stick pan, render chorizo and remove the meat.

Keep fat in pan, and roast potatoes until browned; add chorizo back to pan, and stir.

Transfer mixture to bowl; wipe pan lightly; add butter. Cook eggs until softly scrambled; add salt and pepper; remove from heat.

Grill tortillas; add spoonful of chorizo-potato mix. Divide eggs on tortillas; spoon salsa on each one. Let guests add garnishes.

For the salsa verde: Grill tomatillos until charred. Remove husks. Place tomatillos in a bowl, and smash with a fork until homogenous.

Grill jalapeños until charred. Remove some seeds and skin. Chop jalapeños small. Add to tomatillos along with lime juice, salt, and pepper, and stir to combine. Let cool.

Fold in avocado and cilantro; season with salt and pepper.
