Time 10m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup pork crackling, the kind you get in a bag at the store
1 tablespoon light margarine or 1 tablespoon butter
3 large eggs (beaten)
1/3 cup salsa
3 tortillas (optional)
additional salsa
shredded cheddar cheese (optional) or monterey jack cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • In a medium (dry) skillet on medium heat add the pork cracklins (chicharrones). Lightly fry them just so that they get warmed (about 2 minutes). Set aside.
  • In a medium sized bowl beat the eggs.
  • Add the butter or margarine to the skillet and melt.
  • Add the beaten eggs.
  • When the eggs are slightly done add the warm pork cracklins and gently fold into the eggs.
  • Once the eggs are about done add the salsa. He said his mom uses a mild homemade salsa that she canned over the summer but a good store bought salsa would work well too. The more watery it is the better (in this particular recipe). You want the cracklins to absorb the salsa and become moist.
  • If needed you can add a tiny bit of water just in case your salsa wasn't "watery" enough.
  • When done. Scoop the huevos con chicharrones into the tortillas and garnish with shredded cheese and additional salsa and cilantro if desired.

These chicharrones con huevos were a delightful symphony of flavors! The crispy pork cracklins added a wonderful textural contrast to the soft, fluffy eggs. The combination of flavors was divine, with the smokiness of the pork playing perfectly again
