Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs until light and frothy. Add the tortilla strips and gently toss to coat. Allow the tortillas to soak in the egg mixture for at least 5 minutes to soften slightly. (5 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

Gently fold in the diced tomato, chopped onion, jalapeño peppers, and half of the shredded Cheddar cheese into the egg and tortilla mixture. Stir until evenly combined. (2 minutes)

03

Step
1 mins

Coat a large skillet with nonstick cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant and lightly golden, about 30 seconds. Be careful not to burn the garlic. (30 seconds)

04

Step
6 mins

Pour the egg mixture into the hot skillet, spreading it evenly. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly moist, about 5-7 minutes. (5-7 minutes)

05

Step
2 mins

Reduce the heat to low. Sprinkle the remaining Cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the migas. Cover the skillet and cook until the cheese is fully melted and gooey, about 2-3 minutes. (2-3 minutes)

06

Step
1 mins

Season the migas with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately, garnished with your favorite toppings such as salsa, avocado, or sour cream (optional).

For extra flavor, consider adding chorizo or bacon crumbles to the migas.
If you prefer a spicier dish, leave the seeds in one or two of the jalapeño peppers.
Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as Monterey Jack or Oaxaca.
For a softer texture, soak the tortilla strips in the egg mixture for a longer period.
Serve with a side of refried beans or Mexican rice for a complete and satisfying meal.
