Authentic Spanish Migas Recipe for Dinner

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 2 cups day-old bread (cut into small pieces)
  • 1 cup olive oil (extra virgin for best flavor)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon paprika (smoked paprika preferred)
  • 1 cup chorizo sausage (sliced or diced)
  • 1 cup bell pepper (chopped)
  • 1 cup spinach (fresh, chopped)
  • 4 large eggs (beaten)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Prepare the Bread

    Tear the day-old bread into small pieces and set aside.

    Use crusty bread for the best texture.
  2. Cook the Chorizo

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and add the chorizo. Cook until browned.

    Sauté until the chorizo releases its oils.
  3. Sauté Vegetables

    Add garlic, bell pepper, and spinach to the skillet. Cook until softened.

    Stir frequently to prevent burning.
  4. Add Bread

    Stir in the bread pieces, coating them in the oil and chorizo mixture. Add paprika, salt, and pepper.

    Mix well to ensure even distribution.
  5. Cook Eggs

    Make a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the beaten eggs. Stir gently until eggs are cooked through.

    Cook until eggs are just set for a creamy texture.
