Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 corn tortillas
- 1 cup black beans
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 large eggs
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 cup salsa (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 lime, cut into wedges
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in the black beans, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes until heated through, stirring occasionally. Use a fork to gently mash some of the beans for a creamy texture. Set aside and keep warm.
In a separate large skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the corn tortillas one at a time and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until lightly crispy. Remove and place on plates or a serving platter.
In the same skillet, fry eggs to your preferred doneness (sunny-side up is traditional for huevos rancheros). Season the eggs lightly with salt and pepper while cooking.
To assemble, spread a generous layer of black beans onto each tortilla. Top each tortilla with a fried egg.
Spoon salsa over the eggs and garnish with sliced avocado, chopped fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice for brightness.
Serve immediately, with extra lime wedges on the side for added flavor.
