Huevos Rancheros Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Onions

    Slice the onion into thin strips. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onions until they are soft and slightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Fry the Tortillas

    In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of vegetable oil. Fry the corn tortillas one at a time until they are crispy and golden, about 1-2 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Cook the Eggs

    In the same skillet, crack the eggs and cook them over-easy, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Season with salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Dish

    On each fried tortilla, place an over-easy egg, top with sautéed onions, and pour the red or green sauce over the eggs. Serve with a side of cooked rice and beans.
