Description
Delicious and soulful Migas Breakfast Tacos, filled with crispy tortillas, creamy eggs, and fresh toppings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3-4 tablespoons neutral oil (like canola or avocado)
- 4 small corn tortillas, cut into strips
- 1/2 white onion, diced
- 1 jalapeño, diced
- 6 eggs, beaten with salt and pepper
- 1 cup Monterrey jack cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 8 flour tortillas, warmed
- 2/3 cup pico de gallo
- 1 avocado, diced
- 1/3 cup crumbled cotija cheese
- Hot sauce of choice
Instructions
- Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
- Add tortilla strips and cook, stirring frequently, until golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate; season lightly with salt.
- Add the diced onion and jalapeño to the skillet and cook, stirring often, for 3-4 minutes until softened.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the beaten eggs, and cook by dragging a rubber spatula through eggs to create large curds, until starting to set but still wet.
- Fold the crispy tortilla strips and cilantro into the eggs and top with cheese.
- Cover the skillet and cook just until the cheese is melted.
- Divide among warm flour tortillas and top as desired.
Notes
Try experimenting with different toppings for a personal twist. Ensure not to over-stir the eggs for a tender texture.
