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.

QUICK AND EASY HUEVOS RANCHEROS

Being Canadian, the only time we were able to enjoy this dish was when we traveled to Cali. When searching for a recipe (including this site) I unfortunately could not find the perfect solution. There were so many different variations with either too many ingredients or missing things we love most. I'm a busy Mom and want EASY so I decided to wing it and came up with my own version. Top with sour cream if desired.

QUICK HUEVOS RANCHEROS FOR ONE



Quick Huevos Rancheros for One image

I was on my own for dinner last night, so I decided to take advantage of the situation and cook something that hubby won't eat, cause of those darn cooked tomatoes! I'm on a healthy eating nutrition program right now, and I was really pleased with how filling and delicious this meal was while still fitting into my diet.

Time 20m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 large sweet onion, sliced thinly
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 cup diced tomato
1/2 cup mild enchilada sauce
2 corn tortillas
1/4 cup refried beans
2 eggs
1/2 ounce low-fat cheddar cheese, shredded
1 green onion, sliced thin

Steps:

  • Saute onion in oil in a 9" saute pan until softened and slightly caramelized.
  • Add tomatoes and enchilada sauce and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. (I used canned tomatoes which had juice, you might need to add some more enchilada sauce or water if using fresh tomatoes. You want to wind up with enough sauce so that the eggs can be poached in the sauce.).
  • Meanwhile, heat the corn tortillas over the stove burner set on low, flipping and being careful not to burn. (I have gas burners, I'm not sure if you can do this with electric burners.).
  • Spread the refried beans over the corn tortillas and heat in the microwave for 30 seconds, are until the beans are heated.
  • Once the sauce has come to a boil, turn heat down to medium low and break the eggs directly into the sauce. Cover pan and cook until the eggs are done to your liking. (I like my eggs soft cooked, so this only took a few minutes for me.).
  • To serve, pick up each egg with a large spoon and place on the tortilla. Then pour the rest of the sauce over the eggs and top with the cheese and green onion.

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 red onion, finely diced
Kosher salt
3 garlic cloves, finely minced
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 sprigs oregano
1/2 orange
One 540-milliliter/18.25-ounce can black beans, undrained
1/4 cup water (60 milliliters)
3 medium ripe tomatoes, such as Roma or vine-ripe, roughly chopped
1/2 red onion, roughly chopped
1/2 to 1 jalapeño pepper, roughly chopped
1/4 cup cilantro, roughly chopped
1 garlic clove, roughly chopped
1 lime, juiced
1 tablespoon olive oil
Kosher salt
4 corn tortillas
2 teaspoons olive oil (for frying eggs)
4 eggs
Kosher salt
Optional toppings: crumbled cotija or feta cheese, diced avocado, sour cream, fresh cilantro and/or oregano, sliced jalapeños, lime wedges, hot sauce

Steps:

  • For the beans: Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions, season with salt and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until softened and beginning to brown. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add the cumin, cayenne, oregano, orange, beans with their juices and the water. Bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, for the salsa: Add the tomatoes, onions, jalapeño, cilantro, garlic, lime juice and oil into the bowl of a food processor. Season with salt and pulse until finely chopped and saucy. Season to taste and set aside. (If your tomatoes weren't the sweetest, feel free to pour the salsa into a skillet or saucepan and cook over medium-low heat for 5 to 10 minutes to reduce slightly and sweeten up.)
  • For the garnish: If using a gas stove or if you have access to a grill, turn on the heat and quickly heat the corn tortillas directly over the flame until lightly charred and set aside. You can also heat the tortillas in a pan over medium heat.
  • Heat some oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the eggs and fry until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny. Season with salt.
  • To serve, place the tortillas onto plates and top each with black beans and a fried egg. Spoon the salsa overtop and garnish with toppings of your choice.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Tortilla: Corn or flour tortillas can be used for this recipe. If using corn tortillas, warm them up before assembling the dish to make them more pliable.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh eggs, tomatoes, and cilantro will give your huevos rancheros the best flavor. If possible, use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
  • Don't Overcook the Eggs: The eggs should be cooked until the whites are set and the yolks are still slightly runny. Overcooked eggs will be tough and rubbery.
  • Use a Good Quality Salsa: The salsa is an important part of this dish, so choose one that you enjoy. If you have time, you can make your own salsa using fresh tomatoes, onions, and peppers.
  • Add Some Avocado: Sliced avocado is a great addition to huevos rancheros. It adds a creamy texture and a healthy dose of fats.
