Translated as "crumbs," Mexican-style Migas are scrambled eggs with tortillas, chorizo, and whatever else you have around.

Ingredients

  • 8 oz. fresh chorizo, casings removed
  • 1 tbsp. oil
  • 2 corn tortillas, torn or cut into strips
  • 4 eggs, well beaten
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Sliced avocado, diced tomatoes, and sour cream or crumbled queso, for garnish

Directions

  1. 1

    Cook chorizo in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking it into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove chorizo, with a slotted spoon, reserving oil. Add 1 tablespoon oil (you want about 2 tablespoons total in the skillet) and tortillas to skillet. Cook, without stirring, until crispy, 3 to 4 minutes. 

  2. 2

    Return chorizo to skillet. Add eggs and season with salt and pepper. As eggs begin to set, scrape mixture into center of pan with a heatproof spatula.
