Steps:

  • Put the soft tortilla in a skillet over low to medium heat to warm throughout the process. Mix the chips, jalapenos, tomatoes, and onions and saute over medium heat until the onions are mostly translucent (don't let the chips burn). On the other side of the skillet, add the cheese and heat until melted, while cooking the rest of the dish. Add the egg to the vegetables, scramble together and heat until the egg is cooked. Scoop off the egg mixture and place on top of the cheese. Take off the cheese and egg and place on the warmed soft tortilla. Top with salsa, if desired.

1 small handful tortilla chips, lightly crushed
1 tablespoon jalapenos, chopped
1/8 cup tomatoes, diced
1/8 cup onion, diced
1/2 cup Mexican-blend cheese, grated
1 egg
1 soft flour tortilla
Salsa (optional)

MIGAS BREAKFAST TACOS

What's better than breakfast tacos? How about breakfast tacos with some extra crunch in them? Migas ("crumbs" in Spanish) refers to the crumbled bits of tortilla chips mixed in with the eggs and vegetables. But don't expect any crumbs left when you serve this recipe.

Steps:

  • Place the tomato in a colander and season with salt. Set aside and let drain.
  • Meanwhile, heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and heat until shimmering. Add the onion and jalapeno and cook, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes, if you prefer them slightly cooked, and cook for 30 seconds. Drain the vegetable mixture in the colander and set aside. Wipe out the skillet and reduce the heat to medium-low.
  • Crack the eggs into a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper--but do not beat yet. Add the butter to the skillet; while it starts to melt, beat the eggs until foamy and add to the skillet just before the butter melts completely. Cook, stirring slowly with a silicone spatula, until curds start to form.
  • While the eggs are cooking, warm the tortillas on each side in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add the tortilla chips and vegetable mixture to the eggs and continue to cook until the eggs are almost done. Sprinkle with cheese and remove from the heat. (The eggs will continue to cook off the heat.)
  • Once the eggs are done to your liking, spoon them onto the warmed tortillas and garnish with your desired toppings. Serve immediately!

1/4 cup chopped tomato
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon cooking oil, such as safflower
1/3 cup chopped onion
1 small jalapeno, seeded and finely chopped (about 2 tablespoons)
4 large eggs
1 tablespoon butter
1/3 cup crushed tortilla chips (bite-sized pieces)
1/4 cup shredded pepper jack cheese, optional
Four 6-inch corn or flour tortillas
Chopped cilantro and scallions, sliced avocado, and salsa, for topping, optional

MIGAS BREAKFAST TACOS

Tortilla chips in tacos may seem like overkill, but they're not. Set into scrambled eggs that are loaded with onions and poblanos, they soften and enrich the mix while keeping some crispiness. A slice of avocado on top - along with melted cheese - adds a nice creaminess to the mix. These tacos work well with red or green salsa, so use your favorite. While these would impress at a weekend brunch, they also come together quickly on weekday mornings, and can be wrapped in foil to be eaten out of hand.

Steps:

  • Beat the eggs with 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl.
  • Heat a large cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium heat. Put 3 tortillas in it and turn them until warm and pliable, 1 to 2 minutes. Stack on foil and wrap. Repeat with the remaining 3 tortillas, adding them to the same stack and wrapping to keep warm and soft.
  • Increase the heat to medium-high. Add the oil and swirl to coat, then add the chips. Cook, stirring, until sizzling and browned in spots, about 30 seconds. Add the onion, poblano and 1 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring, until the edges of the onion are just translucent but the vegetables are still crisp, about 2 minutes.
  • Drizzle the egg over the chips and vegetables. Let stand for 15 seconds until just starting to set, then stir rapidly to scramble until just set but still wet, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Sprinkle the cilantro on top.
  • Remove from the heat and immediately divide among the warmed tortillas. Sprinkle with the cheese and top with the avocado and salsa. Serve immediately or wrap each taco in foil to eat out of hand.
