This scrumptious egg dish is so easy because it's just a one pot wonder, or one pan in this case. It's a really simple dish to execute for any skill level. Just brown the chorizo, fry the eggs in the same pan and mix in the cream and goat cheese and bake. Voila! It's nice on its own or what we do at the restaurant is serve with some grilled baguette and garnish with some greens.
