1

Assemble all the ingredients.
2

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Spread the hash browns evenly over the bottom of the baking dish.
3

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chorizo and the onion, breaking up the meat into smaller pieces with a flat wooden spoon. Cook until browned, about 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside.
4

In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, 2 cups Cheddar cheese, 1 cup sour cream, milk, salt, and pepper. Stir in the chorizo mixture.
5

Pour the egg mixture over the hash browns in the baking dish. Dollop the remaining 1/2 cup sour cream over the eggs, then sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup cheese.
6

Bake for 35 to 45 minutes, until just set in the center. Sprinkle with green onions, avocado, and pickled jalapeños, if using. Cut into squares and serve immediately.
