Chorizo and Black Bean Breakfast Bake

Equipment

• Oven
• Cast iron skillet
• Skillet

Ingredients

• 1 lb bulk chorizo sausage
• 1 small yellow onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
• 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained, rinsed
• 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese (8 oz)
• ¾ cup Original Bisquick ® mix
• 1½ cups milk
• 3 eggs
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro

Instructions

1. 1Preheat the oven to 400°F.
2. 2Place a 10-inch cast-iron or ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bulk chorizo, diced yellow onion, and chopped garlic. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sausage browns and the onion softens. Drain any excess fat so the final bake doesn't turn out greasy.
3. 3Set aside 3/4 cup of the black beans. Stir the remaining beans and 1 cup of the Monterey Jack cheese into the cooked sausage mixture in the skillet.
4. 4Whisk the baking mix, milk, and eggs together in a medium bowl until smooth. Pour this batter evenly over the sausage mixture. Sprinkle the reserved black beans and the remaining 1 cup of cheese over the top.
5. 5Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the dish cool for 5 minutes before topping with chopped fresh cilantro and slicing into wedges. Resting helps the slices hold their shape.
