Scrambled Peppers and Eggs image

As in many Mark Bittman recipes, the idea here is more vegetables -- in this case, peppers -- than protein. It works because except for the jalapeño, none of the peppers is hot.

Time 30m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
2 red bell peppers, chopped
2 poblano or Anaheim chiles, chopped
1 fresh hot green chile (like jalapeño), chopped, optional
1 tablespoon minced garlic
Salt and ground black pepper
4 eggs, beaten

Steps:

  • Put oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until it's translucent, 1 or 2 minutes.
  • Add peppers, chiles and garlic, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until peppers are brightly colored but not too soft, 4 to 6 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low and pour in eggs. Cook, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, until eggs are cooked, 3 to 8 minutes. Serve on toast or over rice, or wrapped in a flour tortilla.
