Instructions

1. Grill Peppers, Tomatoes, Onion, and Garlic

   Preheat the grill to medium‑high. Place the 4 serrano peppers, 4 tomatoes, the quartered onion, and 2 garlic cloves directly on the grill. Grill 5‑7 minutes, turning occasionally, until skins are charred and vegetables are softened. Remove and set aside.

2. Cut and Brown Dried Meat

   Using a sharp chef's knife, cut the dried meat into small cubes about 1‑2 cm. Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a heavy pot over medium heat until shimmering. Add the meat cubes and fry 5‑6 minutes, stirring, until browned and slightly crisp.

4. Cook Eggs with the Meat

5. Add Grilled Vegetables

   Roughly chop the grilled peppers, tomatoes, onion, and garlic. Add them to the pot, stir to combine, and season with ½ tsp salt (optional) and ¼ tsp black pepper. Simmer 5 minutes, allowing flavors to meld.
