MEXICAN EGG SCRAMBLE



Mexican Egg Scramble image

For anyone on the go, this is a hearty, portable breakfast -- eggs wrapped in a tortilla and twisted up in foil. At home, place the pan with eggs and toasted corn tortillas in the center of the table.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 8

18 corn tortillas or 1 bag salted tortilla chips
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
5 scallions (both white and green parts), chopped, or 1/2 cup chopped onion
4 to 6 serrano or jalapeno chiles, minced
1 large or 2 small tomatoes, coarsely chopped
1 1/4 teaspoons coarse salt
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
1 dozen large eggs

Steps:

  • If using corn tortillas, toast individually over a gas flame on low or in a pan for about 40 seconds per side. Stack on top of each other and wrap in foil or a clean kitchen towel. This will steam the toasted tortillas for pliability.
  • Heat a 14-inch skillet and then add the oil and swirl it around in the pan. Stir in the scallions and chiles. Add the tomatoes, salt, and cilantro, if using. Stir over high heat for about 2 minutes.
  • Crack the eggs one at a time into the skillet and stir. Cook just until the eggs are set, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve immediately: scoop a portion of eggs onto each plate and offer 3 tortillas each, or crumble tortilla chips over the egg mixture.

FIESTA EGG SCRAMBLE



Fiesta Egg Scramble image

This is a recipe I found on the cooksrecipes.com website, from their World Cuisine folder. It's different than the only other recipe on this site with the same title, so I thought I'd post it here for another option for anyone looking for a Tex-Mex breakfast idea.

Provided by Northwestgal

Categories     Breakfast

Time 20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 large eggs, slightly beaten
3/4 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine, melted
1 cup onion, chopped
1 cup red bell pepper, chopped
1 cup mushroom, sliced
1 (4 ounce) can green chilies, diced
6 slices bacon, cooked & crumbled (optional)
3/4 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
3/4 cup monterey jack cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • Combine eggs, cream and salt in medium bowl.
  • Melt butter in a large skillet; cook onion, bell pepper and mushrooms until tender.
  • Add the chiles, bacon (if using), and egg mixture. Cook, stirring occasionally until eggs begin to set. Sprinkle cheddar cheese and Monterey Jack cheese over eggs. Cover, and continue to cook until eggs are set and fully cooked.

Tips:

  • Use fresh eggs: Fresh eggs will give you the best results. If you don't have fresh eggs, you can use older eggs, but they may not be as fluffy.
  • Add milk or cream: Adding milk or cream to your eggs will make them richer and creamier. You can use any type of milk or cream, but whole milk or heavy cream will give you the richest flavor.
  • Season your eggs: Salt and pepper are the basic seasonings for scrambled eggs, but you can also add other spices or herbs, such as garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, or herbs.
  • Cook your eggs over medium heat: Cooking your eggs over medium heat will help them cook evenly and prevent them from overcooking.
  • Stir your eggs frequently: Stirring your eggs frequently will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
  • Don't overcook your eggs: Overcooked eggs will be tough and rubbery. Cook your eggs until they are just set, but still slightly runny in the center.
  • Serve your eggs immediately: Scrambled eggs are best served immediately after they are cooked.

Conclusion:

Scrambled eggs are a quick, easy, and delicious breakfast that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect scrambled eggs every time. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy breakfast, give scrambled eggs a try!
