Potato Chip Spanish Tortilla image

This is based on a recipe from George Duran's book, Take This Dish and Twist It. He says, "Make this recipe more memorable by using thick-cut, gourmet chips and only the freshest eggs." Tip: If the handle of your skillet is made of plastic, simply wrap it with foil before placing it in the oven. Be sure your skillet is oven-safe (it should say so on the bottom of the pan or in the manufacturer's directions).

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 eggs
1 (5 ounce) bag potato chips, slightly crushed (high-end such as Terra Chips)

3 tablespoons green onions, chopped

  • Loosen the tortilla by running a heatproof plastic spatula around the edges.
