Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 red bell peppers, chopped
  • 2 poblano or Anaheim chiles, chopped
  • 1 fresh hot green chile (like jalapeño), chopped, optional
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • salt
  • ground black pepper
  • 4 eggs, beaten

Instructions

Put oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until it’s translucent, 1 or 2 minutes.

Add peppers, chiles and garlic, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until peppers are brightly colored but not too soft, 4 to 6 minutes.

Reduce heat to medium-low and pour in eggs. Cook, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, until eggs are cooked, 3 to 8 minutes. Serve on toast or over rice, or wrapped in a flour tortilla.
