MIGAS BREAKFAST TACOS



Migas Breakfast Tacos image

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.

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 large eggs
Kosher salt
6 corn tortillas
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup tortilla chips, broken if very large
1/2 cup diced onion
1 cup diced, seeded poblano pepper
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
2 ounces pepper jack cheese, grated (3/4 cup)
1/2 avocado, pitted, peeled and sliced
Salsa, for serving

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.

MIGAS BREAKFAST TACOS

Migas are normally cooked eggs with fried tortilla strips. I however enjoy a 'deconstructed' version. I cook my eggs with Hatch chiles and onions, stuff a tortilla with the egg mixture, and top them with fried corn tortilla strips.

BREAKFAST MIGAS



Breakfast Migas image

Growing up as a marine brat, I was fortunate to have friends from all types of cultural backgrounds, and of course with friends came introduction to different food! I called migas "breakfast nachos" as a kid, and this recipe came from a friend's mother. The tortilla chips are easy to make at home, and I do not suggest store-bought; however, you may use your own preferred salsa.

Categories     Breakfast Eggs

Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 18

½ cup oil for frying
12 (6 inch) corn tortillas, cut into bite-sized pieces
salt to taste
3 peppers dried guajillo chilies
5 medium Roma tomatoes
2 cloves garlic, peeled
¼ cup chopped onion
3 cups hot water
2 teaspoons salt, divided
¼ teaspoon dried Mexican oregano
⅛ teaspoon ground cumin
1 pinch ground black pepper
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
5 large eggs, beaten
3 medium green onions, chopped
¼ cup fresh cilantro leaves
1 ripe avocado, pitted and sliced
2 tablespoons shredded Oaxaca cheese, or to taste

Steps:

  • Place skillet on the stove over medium heat and add enough oil to reach 1 inch. Once oil is hot, add cut tortilla pieces without overcrowding the skillet. Fry tortilla pieces in the hot oil, until they crisp up and achieve a golden color, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove tortilla chips with a slotted spoon and set on a plate covered with paper towels to drain. Sprinkle with salt to taste and continue working in batches until all tortilla pieces are fried and done. Reserve frying oil.
  • Set a flat griddle or comal over medium-low heat and toast guajillo chiles until fragrant, about 20 seconds per side.
  • Combine toasted chiles, tomatoes, and garlic in a saucepan and cover with hot water. Simmer over medium-low heat until guajillos are softened and tomatoes are cooked through, about 10 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup cooking liquid.
  • Combine chiles, tomatoes, garlic, onion, 1 teaspoon salt, oregano, cumin, pepper, and reserved liquid in a blender. Blend on high until smooth. Strain sauce.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a saucepan set over medium-high heat. Once oil is hot, pour in sauce, and simmer until salsa thickens, 12 to 15 minutes. Adjust seasoning if desired.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of reserved frying oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add all tortilla chips once oil is hot and reheat for 1 minute. Pour in eggs and cook and stir until eggs are beginning to set. Add salsa and gently fold into the egg mixture until everything is covered in salsa and the eggs are cooked, about 2 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and serve immediately topped with green onions, cilantro, avocado, and cheese.

MIGAS BREAKFAST TACOS



Migas Breakfast Tacos image

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.

Provided by Jaymee Sire

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 tacos

Number Of Ingredients 11

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

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!
