Method

Tamales Preparation

  1. 1

    Heat the Tamales

    In a steamer or microwave, heat the chicken tamales according to package instructions, until warmed through (about 10-15 minutes in a steamer or 2-3 minutes in a microwave).

  2. 2

    Prepare the Sauce

    While the tamales are heating, warm the red or green sauce in a small saucepan over low heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Eggs Preparation

  1. 3

    Cook the Eggs

    In a skillet, heat olive oil or butter over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and season with salt and black pepper. Cook to your desired doneness, about 2-3 minutes for sunny-side up or 4-5 minutes for over-easy.

Potatoes Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare the Potatoes

    In a separate skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced potatoes, season with salt and paprika (if using), and sauté for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and tender.
