José's Aragonese Migas

I love collecting recipes from my friends (and my mom/grandmothers), and I'm putting together an amazing recipe book! Seriously, every single one is delicious.
Here’s José’s Aragonese migas, from Tauste/Jaca/Zaragoza—I’ve never had better anywhere! We made these for about 10 people this time (that’s why there’s so much in the photos), but I’m giving you quantities for 4-6, which is more typical.
ℹ️ Traditionally served with grapes and a fried egg.

Steps
- 1
First, moisten the bread pieces by sprinkling 4-5 tablespoons of water over them. The bread should be damp but not soaked. We usually buy it pre-cut, but if not, just cut day-old bread into small pieces—country-style bread works best because it has more crumb.
- 2
Next, chop the rest of the ingredients into small pieces: the onion, garlic, peeled potato (cut into small cubes), and all the meats.
- 3
Heat a large deep skillet or Dutch oven over low heat and add plenty of olive oil. Sauté the onion and garlic until soft, then add the pork belly and potato. Cook everything together over medium-low heat until it’s all tender.
- 4
Add the lard (if using) and the rest of the meats. Cook until browned, then add the paprika and cinnamon. Stir constantly so the paprika doesn’t burn. When you smell the cooked paprika, it’s ready.
- 5
Add the moistened bread pieces and stir well so everything mixes and the bread starts to brown. If the bread doesn’t brown, add a bit more oil; if it seems dry, sprinkle a little more water. The key is to keep stirring until the migas are moist and toasted.

That’s it! Serve with grapes and a fried egg if you like. Here’s the plate José made for me! 😋
