Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon milk or water
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- ½ cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- ½ cup broken up tortilla chips, in bite size pieces
- ¼ cup chopped red onion
- 1 large tomato, chopped
- 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
- Corn tortillas, warmed, if making tacos
- For Serving: avocado or guacamole, salsa or pico de gallo, jalapeno slices, extra shredded cheese, hot sauce
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, add the eggs and milk or water. Whisk until well combined. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large skillet over medium high heat and add the butter. When the butter is melted, add the eggs and cook, stirring frequently with a silicone spatula, until slightly scrambled and just set, about 30 seconds. Add the shredded cheese, tortilla chips, onion, tomato, and cilantro.
- Use the spatula to make long sweeps across the pan until you see large, creamy curds. When the eggs are softly set, but still a little runny in places, remove the pan from the heat. Let the eggs sit to finish cooking while you get the toppings ready.
- You can serve the migas with toppings or make migas breakfast tacos. To assemble the tacos, give the eggs a stir and then place the scrambled egg mixture in the center of a corn tortilla. Top with desired toppings. Serve immediately.
