How to Make Green Eggs And Ham Mexican Style

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a medium-sized skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add 1/2 cup diced ham (or 1/4 cup chorizo) and sauté for 2-3 minutes, until lightly browned.
  3. Stir in 1/2 cup salsa verde and cook for 1 minute, until heated through.
  4. Crack 2 large eggs directly into the skillet with the ham and salsa verde.
  5. Gently stir the mixture with a spatula, combining the eggs with the sauce and lightly scrambling them.
  6. Reduce heat to medium-low. Continue to cook, stirring frequently and scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon to prevent sticking, until the eggs are set but still slightly moist (about 3-5 minutes).
  7. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Remove from heat and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh cilantro.
  9. Serve immediately with warm tortillas, if desired, for scooping up the delicious mixture.
