Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 corn tortillas
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup canned black beans
- 0.5 onion, diced
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 0.5 jalapeno, diced
- 1 cup canned diced tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon pepper
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 0.25 cup crumbled cotija cheese (optional)
Instructions
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Lightly fry the corn tortillas one at a time for about 1 minute per side until they are golden and crisp. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Sauté the diced onion, garlic, and jalapeno for 3-4 minutes until softened and aromatic.
Add the canned diced tomatoes, black beans, ground cumin, and half of the salt and pepper. Cook on medium heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens slightly.
While the beans are simmering, prepare the cumin lime cream. In a small bowl, combine sour cream, lime juice, the remaining salt, and a pinch of ground cumin. Mix well and set aside.
Wipe the skillet clean and fry the eggs to your preferred doneness – sunny-side-up works best for this dish.
To assemble, place one tortilla on a plate. Spoon a generous portion of the black bean mixture on top. Add a fried egg and drizzle with the cumin lime cream.
Top each serving with fresh cilantro, sliced avocado, and optional crumbled cotija cheese.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Fantastic Huevos Rancheros with Cumin Lime Cream!
