Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°.
- Add the tomatoes, peppers, onions, and garlic to a sheet tray lined with parchment paper, and coat in the 3 tablespoons of oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Roast in the oven at 425° for 30 minutes and then add to a blender and pulse a few times so that it is like a chunky salsa. Transfer to a saucepot, adjust seasonings with salt and pepper, and keep warm over low heat.
- While the vegetables are roasting you can prepare everything else. In a large frying pan add some neutral flavored oil and heat over medium heat or until it is 350°.
- Fry the corn tortillas until crispy in batches, which takes about 1 minute per side. Place them on a rack over a sheet tray to drain.
- In that same oil, fry eggs to your desired amount of doneness. Be sure to season them with salt and pepper.
- Serve the eggs on top of the crispy tortillas and top off with salsa. Other things to serve it with are warm refried beans, queso fresco cheese, and cilantro.
Notes
- Make-Ahead: These are meant to be eaten as soon as they are done cooking. You can keep the ingredients separate for up to 30 minutes before assembling and serving.
- How to Store: Keep the ingredients separate and covered in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days. Be sure to keep the fried corn tortillas covered and at room temperature. These will not freeze well.
- How to Reheat: Reheat the beans according to their reheating instructions, warm the tortillas, fry new eggs, and add on salsa.
- While my recipe is very classic, please feel free to expand and add additional toppings and side dishes to accompany this.
