Ingredients
  

6 large eggs

½ cup whole milk

1 cup Hatch green chilies, roasted and finely chopped

1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

1 small onion, finely diced

2 cloves of garlic, minced

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

4 large flour tortillas (consider whole wheat for a healthier choice)

Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnishing)

Sour cream (optional, for serving)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Hatch Chilies: If your Hatch chilies aren’t pre-roasted, roast them over a flame until the skin is blistered and charred. Transfer them to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let them steam for about 10 minutes. Once cooled, peel off the skin, remove the seeds if desired, and chop finely.

    Whisk the Eggs: In a large mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add the milk. Whisk vigorously with a pinch of salt and pepper until the mixture is smooth and frothy.

      Sauté the Vegetables: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until it becomes translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

        Incorporate the Chilies: Toss in the chopped Hatch chilies and stir gently, cooking for another 2-3 minutes until they are warmed through.

          Scramble the Eggs: Pour the whisked egg mixture into the skillet with the vegetables. Allow it to settle for a moment without stirring, then gently stir the eggs to form soft curds. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are just set but still fluffy and tender—avoid overcooking them.

            Mix in the Cheese: Remove the skillet from heat and fold in the shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until the cheese has melted and is evenly distributed throughout the egg mixture.

              Assemble the Wraps: Place the tortillas flat on a clean surface. Spoon a generous portion of the egg mixture into the center of each tortilla. Fold in the sides and then roll tightly from the bottom upwards to form a wrap.

                Heat the Wraps (Optional): For a deliciously crispy finish, place the wraps back into the skillet. Grill on medium heat for 1-2 minutes on each side until lightly golden and crispy.

                  Serve: Slice the wraps in half for easier handling, garnish with freshly chopped cilantro, and offer sour cream on the side for dipping or drizzling.
