Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove from the pan and let them drain on a paper towel. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces.

  2. 2

    Scramble the Eggs

    In the same skillet, remove excess bacon grease leaving about 1 tablespoon. Crack the eggs into a bowl, whisk them with salt and black pepper, then pour them into the skillet. Scramble the eggs over medium heat until just set.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Tacos

    Warm the taco shells in a separate skillet or microwave. Fill each taco shell with scrambled eggs, crumbled bacon, a drizzle of chipotle crema, a sprinkle of queso fresco, and top with pickled jalapeños.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve the tacos immediately while warm, with extra chipotle crema on the side if desired.
