Santa Fe Breakfast Burrito with Hatch Green Chiles: A popular local favorite packed with flavor.
Ingredients:
  • 4 potatoes, shredded
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1 (8 ounce) container frozen Hatch, New Mexico green chile peppers
  • 0.5 cup chicken broth
  • 12 strips bacon
  • 0.33333334326744 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 6 (10 inch) flour tortillas
  • butter flavored cooking spray
  • 12 extra large eggs, beaten
  • 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
Instructions:
  • Soak the shredded potatoes in a bowl of water and let them stand. In a saucepan over high heat, bring the onion, garlic, green chiles, and chicken broth to a boil. Lower the heat, simmer until the sauce thickens, then remove from heat.
  • Place bacon strips on paper towels on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on High until crisp, about 1 minute per strip. Set aside.
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, warm the vegetable oil. Add the drained potatoes and cook, spooning hot oil over them. Season with onion powder, salt, and pepper. Fry the potatoes, flipping occasionally, until crispy and cooked through, approximately 15 minutes.
  • Warm the tortillas by placing them between two damp paper towels and microwaving on High for about 30 seconds.
  • In a separate skillet sprayed with butter flavored cooking spray, cook the eggs over medium heat, continuously whisking until completely set. Remove from heat.
  • Place a tortilla on a clean surface. Add potatoes, scrambled egg, and a strip of bacon on the lower third, leaving some space on the sides for folding. Spoon some green chile sauce and sprinkle Cheddar cheese on top.
  • Fold the left and right edges into the center about 2 inches. Lift the bottom edge with the filling, fold it over the filling, making sure the sides are secure, then roll the burrito tightly up to the top edge. Place seam-side down to keep it secure. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
