Best 4 Southwestern Breakfast Tacos Recipes

SOUTHWESTERN BREAKFAST TACOS

Steps:

• Spray a large skillet with cooking spray; warm over medium-high heat. Whisk eggs together in a bowl. Pour into the skillet; cook and stir until eggs are set, about 5 minutes.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add turkey sausage, onion, chili powder, cumin, jalapeno, and garlic salt. Cook and stir until sausage is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Divide scrambled eggs, Cheddar cheese, and sausage mixture between tortillas.

SOUTHWEST BREAKFAST BURRITOS

Steps:

• Whisk together the eggs, milk, and salt in a large bowl. Heat butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in the egg mixture; cook and stir until eggs are completely set, about 5 minutes. Chop the cooked eggs and place in a large bowl. Set aside.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat and stir in the sausage and garlic. Cook and stir for 5 minutes, then add the onion. Continue cooking and stirring until the sausage is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink. Drain and discard any excess grease. Combine the sausage with the eggs, tomato, cilantro, jalapeno, and taco seasoning. Allow mixture to cool to room temperature, then stir in the Cheddar cheese.
• Place a tortilla onto your work surface, then spoon some of the filling halfway between the bottom edge and the center of the tortilla. Flatten the filling into rectangle shape with the back of a spoon. Fold the bottom of the tortilla snugly over the filling, then fold in the left and right edges. Roll the burrito up to the top edge, forming a tight cylinder. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
• Tightly wrap individual burritos with plastic wrap and freeze until ready to serve. Heat in the microwave until hot, 3 to 4 minutes, before serving.

SOUTHWESTERN FISH TACOS

Steps:

• For sauce, mix mayonnaise, sour cream, cilantro and 2 teaspoons taco seasoning. In another bowl, toss cod with lemon juice and remaining taco seasoning., In a skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; saute cod just until it begins to flake easily with a fork, 4-6 minutes (fish may break apart as it cooks). Spoon into taco shells; serve with sauce and optional ingredients as desired.

LEFTOVER-BRISKET BREAKFAST TACOS

Steps:

• Position an oven rack on the top level (or on a level that can accommodate a skillet) and preheat the broiler.
• Place the tomatoes, onion, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and a pinch of salt in a small cast-iron skillet, then toss together and spread evenly. Broil, tossing halfway through, until charred around the edges, about 15 minutes. Watch closely to prevent scorching. Add the tomato mixture to a blender with the chipotles and adobo sauce. Process until chopped, about 10 seconds. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in the green chiles and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Taste and add more salt if needed. Set aside.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the brisket and cook, adding 1 or 2 teaspoons of olive oil if the pan seems dry, until crisped all over, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
• Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil in the same skillet, swirling to coat. Pour in the eggs and cook, undisturbed, until just set around the edges, about 15 seconds. Using a rubber spatula, pull the set egg from around the edges into the center of the skillet. Continue cooking, drawing the spatula around the edge of the pan every 15 to 20 seconds, until the eggs are softly set, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Fill the warmed tortillas evenly with the scrambled eggs, brisket, tomato salsa, cilantro and crushed potato chips if using.
