Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 1 small white onion, finely chopped
  • 2 to 3 serrano or jalapeno chilies, minced (more to taste, seeded if desired)
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 3/4 pound tomatoes, cut into small dice, or 3/4 of a 14-ounce can, drained
  • 3 to 4 tablespoons chopped cilantro
  • Salt to taste
  • 6 to 8 large eggs

Method

  • Heat the oil over medium heat in a large, heavy nonstick skillet.
  • Add the onion.
  • Cook, stirring, for about three minutes until just tender.
  • Turn the heat to medium-high, and add the chilies, garlic, tomatoes and half the cilantro.
  • The mixture should sear in the pan.
  • Cook, stirring often, until the tomatoes have cooked down and the mixture is lightly browned, five to eight minutes.
  • Season to taste with salt, and turn the heat down to medium.
  • The tomatoes should not be watery.
  • Beat the eggs in a medium bowl, and add salt to taste and the remaining cilantro.
  • Add to the pan and cook, stirring every few seconds to create large curds, until the eggs are scrambled.
  • Taste, adjust seasoning and serve.
