MIGAS, MY WAY

The word migas means "crumb" in Spanish and they used the crumbs or scraps of tortillas to make them. There are many versions. This is a Tex-Mex version. A Hispanic friend of mine used to make these for her children for breakfast. I never wanted to try them since they looked gross. She used a can of tomato sauce in hers and it...

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oil in large skillet oover medium heat. Tear corn tortillas into 1 inch pieces. Beat eggs with sour cream, picante sauce, and 1/2 of the 4 oz can of chilis, and S&P. Add torn tortillas to the hot oil carefully and stir fry until crisp and very light brown. Drain off excess oil. Lower skillet temperature. Add egg mixture to tortillas and stir gently until eggs are almost set. Sprinkle cheese on top and cover for a minute until melted. Serve on plates with any of the garnishes listed or be creative and do your own thing. This is a complete breakfast to me and my family but you can add sides of refried beans, flour tortllas, chorizo or sausage. Enjoy!

1/3 c canola oil or other veg oil
8 - 6 inch corn tortillas, torn in small pieces
8 large eggs
1/3 c picante sauce or any homemade salsa

5 chopped green onions
1 - 4 oz can(s) diced green chilis, drained and divided
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp fresh ground pepper
1 1/2 c shreaded cheddar or mexican blend cheese

MIGAS- MY WAY

I make these whenever I have a bunch of tortilla chips crumbled at the bottom of the bag, or when I have a ton of corn tortillas that need to get used. Or, when I feel like making a hearty, stay-with-you-all-morning breakfast. This is saved for a Saturday or Sunday morning so I can pick at what's left all day long!!! Serve them...

Steps:

  • 1. If using corn tortillas, cut into 1x2" squares, or tear into bite sized pieces. If using chips, crumble any that are too big to be bite sized. Cut onion to large dice, set aside. Cut jalapeno to smaller dice (after you easily remove seeds and membrane with a spoon), for less heat; set aside. (You can also use a serrano pepper, minced, if you prefer. They are hotter, so caution.)
  • 2. Heat oil in a 10", or 12" nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat until oil just starts to shimmer. Add corn tortillas, or chips, and fry tortillas until crisp, 5-10 minutes or so, stirring frequently. (Fry chips until warmed through, 2-3 minutes.) Salt to taste; more for tortillas, less for chips.
  • 3. Reduce heat to medium, add onion and hot pepper of choice; continue stirring. When onions become translucent, add eggs, and cheese, if using. Allow eggs to set, flipping so all egg is cooked, but not dry. I use 3 tortillas/1 egg/1 person; 1 cup chips/1 egg/1 person. We like lots of onion and hot pepper, so use what suits you. If you want more eggs holding everything together, do that. They're your migas.
  • 4. Serve with beans, boiled or refried, a few slices of avocado, fresh fruit, a hot cup of coffe, and enjoy! Let me know what you think. But DON'T throw your crumbled chips away again. I've even used 2 or 3 different kinds of chips at the same time!!

2-3 Tbsp olive oil
4+ c tortilla chips, crumbled or
6-12 corn tortillas, cut, or torn into bite sized pieces (3 per person)
1/2 large white onion, large dice
1 large jalapeno, fresh, minced
1/2-1 tsp sea salt
2-4 large eggs, beaten
1/4-1/2 c cheddar cheese, shredded (optional)
