1
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
2
Add the tortilla strips to the hot oil and cook until crispy, which should take about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure they cook evenly.
3
While the tortilla strips cook, whisk together the eggs and milk in a medium-sized bowl until frothy.
4
Add the chopped onions, minced garlic, chopped jalapeño, and chopped tomato to the skillet with the tortilla strips. Sauté until the onions are softened, about 2 minutes.
5
Reduce the heat to low, push the tortilla and vegetables to one side of the skillet, then pour in the egg mixture to the bare part of the skillet.
6
Scramble the eggs by gently scraping with a spatula until cooked through, this would take around 3 minutes.
7
Mix together the scrambled eggs with the crispy tortilla strips and vegetables. Season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
8
Serve the scrambled eggs hot, topped with your choice of fresh avocado slices, shredded Monterey Jack cheese, and a sprinkle of chopped fresh cilantro.
