Fire-Roasted Serrano Migas Skillet

Ingredients

  • 6 corn tortillas, cut into ½-inch strips
  • 3 tablespoons neutral oil, divided
  • 8 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons whole milk
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt, divided
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ small yellow onion, diced
  • ½ red bell pepper, diced
  • 3 tablespoons Texan Heartland Roja Brava Hot Sauce, divided
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack or cheddar cheese
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 8 small flour or corn tortillas, warmed, for serving
  • Additional Texan Heartland Roja Brava Hot Sauce, for serving

Directions

  1. Crisp the tortilla strips: Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tortilla strips and cook for 5–6 minutes, stirring frequently, until golden and crisp. Season with half of the salt and transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
  2. Prepare the eggs: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, black pepper, remaining salt, and 1 tablespoon of Texan Heartland Roja Brava Hot Sauce.
  3. Cook the vegetables: Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the skillet. Add the onion and bell pepper and cook over medium heat for 4–5 minutes, until softened.
  4. Scramble the eggs: Reduce the heat to medium-low and pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Cook, gently folding the eggs with a spatula, until they begin to set but remain soft.
  5. Add the cheese and tortilla strips: Fold in the cheese and approximately two-thirds of the crispy tortilla strips. Continue cooking just until the cheese melts and the eggs are softly set.
  6. Finish the skillet: Remove from the heat. Top with the remaining tortilla strips, cilantro, avocado, and the remaining 2 tablespoons of Roja Brava.
  7. Serve: Bring the skillet directly to the table and serve with warm tortillas and additional Roja Brava Hot Sauce.
