In Tex-Mex cuisine, migas are a traditional breakfast dish consisting of scrambled eggs mixed with strips of corn tortilla. When I was a kid, I used to spend the night at my best-friend's house and her mom would make these for us on weekend mornings. I ran into my friend's mom a few weeks ago at a party and asked for the recipe. She kind of laughed and shared her recipe with me.
Eggs
Milk
Oil
Corn Tortillas cut into 1-inch squares
Scallions
Monterey Jack Cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Method:
1. In a bowl, whisk eggs together with milk.
2. In a large pan, heat oil on medium-high, and place tortilla squares in, cooking for about three minutes, turning over one time. (Note: If you cook them too long, save those for tortilla chips and begin again). Let tortillas drain on a paper towel.
3. Leaving a little oil in the pan, add scallions and cook for a few minutes.
4. Add egg mixture and tortilla strips to the pan and let the eggs set. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top and once the cheese is melted, breakfast or in our case, dinner is ready!
Tasted terrific and I will definitely make again.
