Ingredients
- 10 ounces store bought chipotle salsa or your favorite brand / flavor of salsa
- ½ cup avocado oil
- 6 small corn tortillas
- 14 ounces refried beans warmed
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 6 eggs
- 1 avocado
- ½ cup grated queso fresco
- Flaky salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Add the corn tortillas, two at a time, and fry for 60 to 90 seconds on each side until golden brown and crisp. Remove the tortillas from the oil and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat this process for the remaining tortillas.
- Smear ¼ cup of the warmed refried beans onto each tortilla and add ¼ cup of the salsa on top.
- Once the tortillas are fried, drain the oil from the skillet and add the butter. Let it melt over medium heat. Carefully crack three eggs into the skillet, evenly spaced to give them room to cook. Cook until the egg whites are set, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the fried eggs from the skillet and place one on each tortilla. Repeat this process for the remaining three eggs.
- Cut the avocado in half lengthwise and remove the pit. Scoop the avocado from the skin and place it on a cutting board. Cut six thin slices from each half of the avocado and place two slices on top of each fried egg.
- Sprinkle the queso fresco on top and season with salt and pepper if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- Tortilla Perfection: Make sure your oil is hot enough before frying the tortillas—if it’s not sizzling when you add the tortilla, wait a bit longer. This ensures they get super crispy and not greasy.
- Egg Game Strong: For perfectly cooked sunny-side-up eggs, let the whites set fully while keeping the yolks runny. You can cover the skillet with a lid for the last minute of cooking to gently steam the tops.
- Beans, Beans, Beans: Warming up your refried beans is key! If they’re too thick, add a splash of water or chicken broth to make them extra creamy.
- Customize It: Feel free to add extra toppings like chopped cilantro, a squeeze of lime juice, or a drizzle of hot sauce. Make it your own!
