Time 25m

Yield 8 pacos

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon canola oil
12 ounces breakfast sausage, removed from casing
3 tablespoons half-and-half or milk
6 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon butter
8 thin pancakes, 5 to 6 inches in diameter (see Cook's Note)
1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
1 avocado, thinly sliced
2 Roma tomatoes, cut into small dice
3 scallions, white and light green parts, sliced
Hot sauce, if desired

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage and use a wooden spoon to break it up into crumbles. Cook until browned, about 8 minutes. Remove to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the half-and-half and eggs and season with a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Add the butter to the same skillet the sausage was cooked in and heat over medium-low heat. Add the egg mixture and cook, stirring constantly, until the eggs are scrambled and set, 5 to 6 minutes.
  • To assemble the pacos, divide the egg mixture among the pancakes, top with the crumbled breakfast sausage and sprinkle each with 1 to 2 tablespoons of the cheese. Top with sliced avocado, diced tomato and some scallions and drizzle with hot sauce if desired.
