Pro Tips
  • Heat matters. If heat is too high, eggs will become tough and rubbery.
  • Roast fresh jalapenos by placing whole jalapeno peppers on a lightly oiled baking sheet and broil for about 10-15 minutes or until skins are thoroughly blackened. Turn the peppers over to expose the other side and broil another 5-10 minutes or until skins are thoroughly charred.
