Huevos Rancheros
Ingredients
3 tbsp olive oil, divided
1 medium tomato diced
½ cup red onion diced
2 tbsp jalapeno seeded and minced
1 tbsp chopped cilantro
1 tbsp fresh lime juice
1 tsp salt
1 lb baby red potatoes, quartered
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp cumin
2 eggs
2 corn tortillas
Sliced avocados to garnish
Cotija cheese for garnish
Directions
- In a bowl add your tomatoes, jalapenos, onions, cilantro, salt and lime juice. Mix until combined, adjust flavor for taste and set it aside.
- Turn your gas stovetop on high and place a large frying pan overtop. Add 1 tbsp olive oil, followed by potatoes. Stir and let cook until browned. Season with chili powder, garlic powder and cumin. Stir some more, season accordingly and set aside.
- In the same pan, add oil just to coat the pan, followed by corn tortillas or your favorite kind. Toast until golden around the edges and bubbling, about 5-8 minutes.
- Repeat based on how many you’d like. Gas ranges let you control the heat to get the best tasting toasted tortilla.
- When ready, remove from heat and in the same or smaller pan, coat with oil, and add an egg. Fry to your liking, we went with a hard yolk.
- Once ready and begin assembling your huevos rancheros beginning with the tortilla, tomatoes, egg, and top with avocados, cotija cheese and serve.
