Ingredients
Ranchero Sauce:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 small onion finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 Jalapeño seeded and finely chopped
- 14.5 ounces fire roasted tomatoes 1 can, or diced tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- salt and pepper to taste
- ¼ cup fresh cilantro chopped
Huevos Rancheros:
- 4 large eggs
- 4 small corn tortillas
- 1 cup refried beans warmed
- ½ cup feta cheese crumbled or queso fresco
- 1 avocado sliced
- fresh cilantro chopped (for garnish)
- Lime wedges for serving
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, garlic, and jalapeño. Cook until the onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the diced tomatoes (with their juice), ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 10 minutes, until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Stir in the chopped cilantro and set the sauce aside.
- In a large skillet, heat a little olive oil over medium heat. Warm the corn tortillas, one at a time, until they are pliable and slightly crispy on the edges. Set them aside on a plate.
- In the same skillet, cook the eggs to your desired doneness. For traditional Huevos Rancheros, cook the eggs sunny-side up so the yolks remain runny.
- Spread a layer of warmed refried beans on each tortilla. Place a cooked egg on top of the beans on each tortilla. Spoon the ranchero sauce over the eggs. Garnish with crumbled feta cheese, sliced avocado, and chopped fresh cilantro.
- Serve with lime wedges on the side.
