- 1/2 cup of onion, diced
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced

Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the diced chorizo and cook until it starts to brown, about 3 minutes.

- Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Migas con huevo is a traditional Spanish dish that has its roots in the southern regions of Spain, particularly in Andalusia and Extremadura. This hearty and flavorful dish is made by sautéing leftover bread crumbs in olive oil with garlic, chorizo, and sometimes vegetables, then adding beaten eggs to create a delicious scramble. The dish has humble origins, as it was created as a way to use up stale bread and make a satisfying meal out of simple ingredients. Today, migas con huevo can be found in many Spanish restaurants, especially in the regions where it originated. One of the key elements of this dish is the quality of the bread crumbs, which should be coarse and absorbent to soak up the flavors of the other ingredients. Some chefs also add a touch of paprika or cumin for an extra depth of flavor. For a unique twist, some variations of migas con huevo include the addition of crispy bacon or Spanish ham. When prepared with care and attention to detail, migas con huevo is a comforting and delicious dish that showcases the rustic flavors of Spanish cuisine.
