Green Eggs and Ham - Mexican Style image

This is a simple and delicious Mexican version of Green eggs and Ham. Yes, the eggs are green, but if you love salsa verde like I do, this is a good thing! Enjoy! Good with a side of warmed fresh soft tortillas.

Time 15m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup prepared salsa verde (see Mexican Green Sauce With Tomatillos and Avocado (Salsa Verde))
4 -6 eggs
2 -3 tablespoons diced ham or 2 -3 tablespoons chorizo sausage
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
salt and pepper
snipped fresh cilantro, to garnish
fresh soft tortilla, warmed (optional, to serve)

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a medium-sized skillet over medium heat. Add the diced ham or chorizo and saute briefly until lightly browned.
  • Stir in the salsa verde and cook until hot.
  • Crack the eggs directly into the pan with the sauce (no need to whisk first). Stir the mixture with a spatula to mix in the sauce and to lightly scramble the eggs.
  • Cook gently over medium-low to medium heat, stirring and scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Remove from heat when the eggs begin to set, but are still moist, about 3 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with snipped fresh cilantro, to garnish. Serve immediately.
  • Good with a side of warmed fresh soft tortillas.
