How to Make Robert Rodriguez Sin City Breakfast Tacos

  1. In a large skillet, cook the chorizo over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through. Remove chorizo from skillet and set aside, reserving about 1 tablespoon of the rendered chorizo fat in the skillet.
  2. Add the onion and jalapeño (if using) to the skillet and sauté for 3-5 minutes, or until softened.
  3. Whisk the eggs in a bowl and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Pour the eggs into the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until set.
  5. Stir in the cooked chorizo and crushed tortilla chips. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, until heated through and the chips are slightly softened.
  6. While the migas are cooking, warm the tortillas according to package instructions (either in a dry skillet, microwave, or oven).
  7. Fill each tortilla with the migas mixture.
  8. Top with cotija cheese and cilantro.
  9. Serve immediately and enjoy your Sin City breakfast tacos!
