Breakfast in a Skillet - Texas Style image

With a well seasoned taco meat this tastes totally Tex-Mex, the flavors are delicious with the meat and the pico de gallo. We just love these Breakfast in a Skillet dishes, so many ways to make them. NOTE: Cook time includes the stove top and oven times combined. If you do not have leftover taco meat you could easily cook it...

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 5

12 eggs
1 c taco meat
1 c pico de gallo with corn
2 c melting mexican cheese
3 medium potatoes

Steps:

  • 1. Wash potatoes and slice into medium thick rounds. I like using a mandolin for this. Place in bowl and drizzle with a little olive oil and any spicy seasoning (seasoning opt). Now layer bottom of cast iron skillet or any baking dish, approx 9x11. Cook over low heat with lid on for about 15 - 20 min until you can easily place a fork through, they should not be cooked all the way though. Once potatoes are fork tender, place about 3/4 c of cheese on top of potatoes.
  • 2. For the egg mixture I used leftover taco meat and leftover pico de gallo so I was ready to go. Mix eggs, taco meat and pico together well in bowl. Pour over cheese topped potatoes.
  • 3. Place in a 350° oven on center rack and bake uncovered for about 25-35 min or until center is no longer giggly. During the last few minutes of cooking time add more cheese on top and allow to melt. Let cool in pan for about 10-15 min before slicing and serving.

Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 lb ground beef
1 medium onion, diced
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 (15 ounce) can pinto beans, undrained
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
2 (4 ounce) cans chopped green chilies
1/2 cup uncooked long grain rice
1/2 cup water
1 -2 tablespoon chili powder
2 teaspoons dried cilantro or 2 teaspoons parsley flakes
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
shredded cheddar cheese
salsa
minced fresh cilantro
tortilla chips

Steps:

  • In a skillet, cook beef, onion and garlic over medium heat until the meat is no longer pink; drain. Add the beans, tomatoes, chilies, rice, water and seasonings; mix well.
  • Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve in the skillet or transfer to a shallow serving dish. Sprinkle with toppings of your choice. Serve with tortilla chips.

Tips:

  • Use a well-seasoned cast-iron skillet. This will help to prevent the steak from sticking and will give it a beautiful crust.
  • Make sure the steak is at room temperature before cooking. This will help it to cook evenly.
  • Season the steak generously with salt and pepper. This will help to bring out the flavor of the meat.
  • Cook the steak over medium-high heat. This will help to create a nice crust on the outside while keeping the inside juicy.
  • Flip the steak only once. Over-flipping can make the steak tough.
  • Let the steak rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
  • Serve the steak with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, green beans, or a salad.
