Instructions
- Wash and dice the serranos, tomatoes and onions into small pieces.
- Add oil to a pan over medium-high heat.
- Once hot, add the diced serranos and onion. Sauté until soft and fragrant, about 2 minutes.
- Add tomato and sauté until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 3-4 minutes.
- Meanwhile, crack eggs into a bowl and season with a pinch of salt.
- Use a fork or whisk to whip the eggs until mixed.
- Lower heat to medium low.
- Pour the eggs over the veggies in the pan.
- Stir the eggs and the veggies together until the eggs are cooked to your liking.
- Garnish with freshly diced cilantro and serve.
- Serve this Mexican scramble by itself, with a side of refried beans, or inside of warm tortillas for breakfast tacos or burritos. It is also great garnished with queso fresco or slices of avocado and a fresh salsa.
Notes
- Use jalapeños instead of serrano peppers for a milder result or a mix of the two.
- Add some extra, amazing flavor by substituting the oil for bacon fat.
- Some people also like to use butter instead of oil to sauté their veggies and eggs.
