Method

  1. Prepare the oven by adjusting the rack to the middle position and preheating it to 400°F.

  2. Wrap each roll individually with aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet. Place the sheet in the oven to warm up the rolls while you continue with the rest of the recipe.

  3. In a large cast-iron skillet, heat the oil over high heat until it is almost smoking.

  4. Add the green and red bell peppers, as well as the onions, to the skillet. Stir them often and cook until they start to blacken in spots and become soft, which should take about 5 to 8 minutes.

  5. Season the peppers and onions with a pinch of salt. Reduce the heat to medium-low and let the skillet cool down for 1 minute.

  6. While the skillet is cooling, crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them until they are well combined.

  7. Stir in the cheese, as well as a pinch of salt and pepper, into the beaten eggs.

  8. Add the garlic to the skillet and cook it until it becomes fragrant, which should take approximately 30 seconds.

  9. Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet and let them cook for 10 seconds before stirring.

  10. Continue stirring the eggs every ten seconds until they have set but are still slightly soft. Turn off the heat.

  11. Carefully remove the rolls from the oven. Slice each roll horizontally on one side while leaving the other long side attached
