The Best Huevos Rancheros: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe


  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 4 large eggs
– 4 corn tortillas
– 1 cup cooked black beans (or refried beans)
– 1 cup salsa (store-bought or homemade)
– ½ cup crumbled queso fresco (or feta cheese)
– ¼ cup chopped cilantro (fresh)
– 1 avocado, sliced
– 2 tablespoons olive oil or cooking oil
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Lime wedges (for garnish)


Instructions

Creating The Best Huevos Rancheros is straightforward if you follow these easy steps:

1. Prepare the Tortillas: In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Lightly fry the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until golden and slightly crispy. Set them aside on paper towels to drain any excess oil.

2. Cook the Beans: In the same skillet, add the black beans and season with salt and pepper. Stir and heat for about 2-3 minutes until warmed through. Remove from heat.

3. Fry the Eggs: In a separate pan, heat the remaining tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the pan, careful not to break the yolks. Cook them sunny-side up for about 3-4 minutes or until the whites are set, but the yolks remain runny. You can cover the pan for quicker cooking.

4. Assemble the Dish: On each tortilla, spread a generous spoonful of black beans. Carefully place a fried egg on top of the beans.

5. Add Salsa: Spoon salsa generously over each egg, allowing it to drizzle down the sides.

6. Garnish: Sprinkle crumbled queso fresco over the top and add fresh cilantro. For an extra touch, layer on the avocado slices.

7. Serve Immediately: Serve the huevos rancheros hot, with lime wedges on the side for an added zest.

These simple steps will lead you to create a lovely plate of Huevos Rancheros that captivates the senses.
