Get ready for the most delicious way to enjoy breakfast eggs. This 20 minute spicy Huevos Rancheros recipe is one you need to try!
Ingredients
- 1 cup black beans
- 2 eggs
- 2 tortillas
- 1 avocado
- 1 jalapeno
- ½ cup Pico de Gallo
- 1 tablespoon hot sauce
- 1 teaspoon Cotija cheese
- 1 lime
- 1 tablespoon cilantro chopped
- 1 teaspoon oil
Instructions
- Pan fry the eggs in a bit of oil until crispy on the bottom. Set them aside.
- Add black beans to the same pan and smash them up a bit using a potato masher. Remove and set aside.
- Lightly toast the tortillas on both sides to get them to crisp up.
- Top with a layer of mashed black beans, a crispy fried egg, a drizzle of hot sauce, crumbled cheese, chopped avocados, sliced jalapenos, Pico de Gallo, a drizzle of lime juice and chopped cilantro.
Notes
- Feel free to use any kind of eggs you prefer. Poached eggs and scrambled eggs work well too!
- To make Huevos Rancheros even more hearty, you can also use chorizo or Mexican sausage in addition to the eggs and beans.
- To make the dish vegan, skip the eggs and cheese, and use soy chorizo for some extra protein.
- Sliced peppers and onions can also be a splendid addition to the Huevos Rancheros.
- Experiment with toppings, or set up a bar with lots of toppings in different bowls if you're entertaining. Feature sour cream, a simple guacamole or avocado lime crema, some Mexican pickled vegetables and the classic Ranchero sauce.
