Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • ½ cup sliced onion

  • 1 (5.4 ounce) package Knorr® Fiesta Sides™ - Mexican Rice

  • 8 eggs

  • ¼ cup heavy cream

  • 1 cup diced ham

  • 1 (4 ounce) can diced green chiles, drained

  • 2 medium tomatoes, diced

  • 1 ½ cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions

  1. Heat oil in a 12-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add onions and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove onions from skillet and set aside. Add Knorr® Fiesta Sides™ - Mexican Rice to skillet and cook according to package directions.

  2. Whisk eggs and cream together in a large bowl until well combined and frothy.

  3. Add onions, ham, green chiles and tomatoes to rice in pan; stir well to combine. Slowly pour in egg mixture; stir gently. Reduce heat to low and cover.

  4. Push mixture from the sides to the center with a spatula, allowing uncooked eggs from top of egg skillet to seep down to the bottom, then re-cover. Do this several times, every few minutes, until eggs are just about set.

  5. Stir in 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese; add remaining cheese to top of egg skillet. Cover and allow cheese to melt. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
