Migas Breakfast Tacos Recipe
Migas breakfast tacos feature a creative deconstructed version of traditional migas, where eggs are normally cooked with fried tortilla strips for classic breakfast satisfaction. This innovative interpretation maintains essential migas flavors while adapting the preparation method for improved texture and presentation. The deconstructed approach allows better control over ingredients while ensuring every bite delivers the authentic taste that makes migas a beloved breakfast tradition.

Migas are normally cooked eggs with fried tortilla strips. I however enjoy a ‘deconstructed’ version. I cook my eggs with Hatch chiles and onions, stuff a tortilla with the egg mixture, and top them with fried corn tortilla strips.
Ingredients
4 large eggs
1 tablespoon milk
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon butter
1 (4 ounce) can Hatch chile peppers
¼ cup onions, diced
6 (6 inch) corn tortillas
2 (6 inch) Tortillas, ready-to-bake or -fry, corn
Directions
Crack eggs into a bowl and whisk in milk, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add Hatch chiles and onions. Saute until onions are soft and translucent, 4 to 5 minutes. Add eggs and cook and stir until eggs are set, 3 to 4 minutes.
Divide eggs between 6 tortillas and top with fried corn tortilla strips.
