SHEET PAN HUEVOS RANCHEROS

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

15 small corn tortillas, each cut into 6 wedges
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 dried ancho chile pepper, stemmed
1 14.5-ounce can tomato sauce
1 scallion, roughly chopped
1 jalapeño pepper, thinly sliced
1/2 cup packed fresh cilantro, plus more for topping
1 16-ounce can chili beans in sauce
12 large eggs
1 ripe avocado, chopped
1/2 cup crumbled Cotija cheese
Lime wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Add the tortilla wedges, drizzle with the vegetable oil and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon cumin, the chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; toss until well coated. Spread on the baking sheet in a single layer and bake, stirring occasionally, until crisp, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine the ancho chile and 1/4 cup hot water in a blender. Let stand until the chile is softened, about 5 minutes. Add the tomato sauce, scallion, half the jalapeño slices, the cilantro, remaining 1 teaspoon cumin, ½ teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; puree until smooth. Lightly mash the chili beans in their sauce in a medium bowl until chunky.
  • Remove the tortillas from the oven. Drizzle with about 1/2 cup of the ancho sauce and top evenly with the mashed beans. Crack the eggs on top, spacing them out; season with salt and pepper. Gently run a rubber spatula through any thick egg whites to break them up and help the eggs cook more evenly. Bake until the egg whites are opaque, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Drizzle with 1 cup more ancho sauce. Top with the avocado, cheese, remaining jalapeño slices and more cilantro; serve with lime wedges and the remaining ancho sauce.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 pound ripe plum tomatoes
3 large cloves garlic, unpeeled
1 small onion (about 6 ounces), quartered
2 ancho chiles, stems and seeds removed
1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon chopped chipotle in adobo, plus 1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon adobo sauce
Kosher salt
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
One 15-ounce can pinto beans, drained with liquid reserved
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Kosher salt
2 to 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
8 corn tortillas
8 large eggs
Kosher salt
1/2 cup crumbled Cotija cheese
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons finely chopped white onion

Steps:

  • For the ranchero sauce: Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F and put the tomatoes, garlic cloves and onion on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast the vegetables, turning occasionally, until blistered and charred in spots, about 35 minutes. When cool enough to handle, remove the papery skins from the garlic.
  • Meanwhile, bring a small pot of water to a boil. Add the ancho chiles, cover, and remove from the heat. Let sit for 10 minutes, then drain and pat dry.
  • Put the vegetables and any juices from the baking sheet into a blender. Add the ancho chiles, 1/2 teaspoon each chopped chipotle and adobo sauce and 1/2 teaspoon salt and blend until fairly smooth. Taste; if you want the sauce spicier, stir in the remaining chopped chipotle and adobo sauce.
  • Heat the oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add the sauce (it will sizzle) and 1/3 cup water and cook, stirring, until thickened but pourable, about 5 minutes. Taste and season with salt as necessary. Cover and keep warm over low heat. If the sauce thickens too much, add 1 tablespoon of water at a time to thin it out.
  • For the refried beans: Put the beans in a medium bowl with about half of their reserved liquid and mash with a potato masher until smooth. Heat the vegetable oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat until shimmering, then add the mashed beans and a big pinch of salt and mash again until smooth. Cook, stirring and scraping with a rubber spatula, until heated through. If the beans seem dry, add some more of the reserved liquid until they are creamy. Taste, season with salt if necessary and cover and keep warm over low heat.
  • For serving: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F and line a baking sheet with paper towels. Heat 2 teaspoons vegetable oil in a medium skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add 1 tortilla and cook until the underside blisters, about 15 seconds. Flip the tortilla with tongs and continue to cook until the underside blisters, about 15 seconds. Remove from the pan to the lined baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining 7 tortillas, adding more oil if necessary. Spread about 2 tablespoons of the refried beans on each tortilla and keep warm in the oven.
  • Using the same skillet the tortillas were fried in, heat 1 tablespoon oil until shimmering, about 1 minute. Crack 4 eggs into the skillet and cook until the edges are crispy and whites are almost set. Cover the skillet with a big pot lid and cook until the whites are completely set, 1 more minute. Remove the tortillas from the oven, top four with an egg, then return to the oven and repeat with the 4 remaining eggs.
  • Top the remaining tortillas with the remaining eggs. Sprinkle each with a pinch of salt, some ranchero sauce, Cotija cheese, cilantro and onion. Serve immediately.

HUEVOS RANCHEROS (TEX-MEX)



Huevos Rancheros (Tex-Mex) image

Love to make this once an awhile instead of breakfast tacos, especially with house guests. It's so easy, but it will look like you slaved over a hot stove all morning. The sauce can be made in advance to make things go even quicker.

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup onion (diced)
1/4 cup green bell pepper (diced)
1 garlic clove (minced)
1 jalapeno (minced)
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 (10 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 -2 tablespoon tomato paste
2 teaspoons white vinegar (optional)
1 tablespoon butter
8 eggs
1/4 cup water
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 (10 ounce) can refried beans (with jalapenos)
1 -2 link chorizo sausage
12 -20 flour tortillas
1 cup cheddar cheese (grated)

Steps:

  • Sauce: Sauté onions, bell peppers, garlic, and jalapeno in olive oil until onions are soft. Keep the temp low as to not burn the garlic. Add the remaining ingredients and simmer for 15 minutes. Start with one tablespoon of paste. If still too thin, add more. Keep warm if using right away, otherwise reheat when ready.
  • Eggs: This is the best way to make perfect over-easy eggs. For this meal, it's best to make them last. Melt butter in frying pan that has a lid. When butter is getting frothy, gently crack eggs so you don't break the yokes. Salt and pepper to taste. When whites are set, turn up the heat slightly, pour the water in between the eggs, and cover. Remove lid and serve as soon as the "skin" has set over the yokes. This only takes 30 seconds to a minute, so keep an eye on them.
  • Sides: Remove from casing and brown chorizo, remove and reserve the grease. Fry the refried beans in the chorizo drippings until soft and bubbly. Salt and pepper to taste. Add cooked chorizo and stir. Add a little water if to keep the beans thin and a little soupy.
  • Meanwhile, warm tortillas on a hot griddle. About one minute per side. Keep warm.
  • To serve: Place two eggs on one side of the plate. Spoon refried beans on the other--if they are the right consistancy they should spread to cover their side of the plate. Top and surround the eggs generously with the sauce. All but the rim of the plate should covered with eggs, sauce, and beans. Sprinkle cheese on the beans. Serve with several warm tortillas for scooping on the side.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use ripe, fresh tomatoes. Roma tomatoes are a good choice because they are meaty and have fewer seeds.
  • If you don't have chipotle peppers in adobo, you can substitute 1 teaspoon of chili powder and 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper.
  • To make the salsa ahead of time, simply chop the tomatoes, onion, and cilantro and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • If you want your huevos rancheros to be extra crispy, cook the tortillas in a hot skillet until they are golden brown and crispy on both sides.
  • Serve the huevos rancheros immediately with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, avocado, and cilantro.

Conclusion:

Huevos rancheros is a delicious and easy-to-make Mexican breakfast dish that is perfect for a weekend brunch or a special occasion. With its combination of savory eggs, tangy salsa, and crispy tortillas, huevos rancheros is sure to please everyone at the table.
