Roast the Hatch Chiles

Preheat the oven to 450° and place rinsed and dried Hatch chiles on a baking sheet.

Add steak and sprinkle with all of the seasonings. Stir.
Cook until desired doneness is obtained.

Wipe the frying pan clean, melt a little butter, place a tortilla in the pan, Add a handful of shredded cheese, steak, and scrambled eggs to one half of the tortilla..
Fold in half, flip over and cook the other side until the cheese is melty. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
