Huevos Rancheros Recipe
- 4 eggs
- 6 soft corn tortillas
- 2 tomatoes, diced
- A 1/2 onion, diced
- 1 jalapeno, diced
- 1 small chile in adobo sauce
- 1 can goya black bean soup.
- Drizzle some oil in a pan, turn heat to medium-high, cook onions until they're translucent, about three or four minutes.
- Then, add tomatoes, jalapeno, and one diced chile in adobo sauce with some of the sauce.
- Bring to a quick simmer.
- As that begins to cook itself down into a sauce (and taste it as it does to see if you want to make any adjustments), take a small sauce pan with a little bit of oil and begin toasting your tortilla.
- Flip them when the cooked side begins to brown and blister.
- Put them on a plate that's warming in the oven.
- Ah, the Goya black bean soup.
- This is a timesaver stolen from Smitten Kitchen: Goya Black bean soup isn't very soupy at all.
- It's basically seasoned black beans.
- And when you're hungover hungry and making a Sunday breakfast, reheating someone else's seasoned black beans is probably as much as you have energy for.
- So open the can, drain a bit of the liquid, put in a bowl, and microwave for two minutes.
- Wasn't that easy?
- At this point, you're basically waiting for the sauce to be ready, as you want that done before you get into the eggs.
- When it's done, it should look something like this:
- When it's there, mix in a pinch of salt, and turn the heat down to a slower simmer.
- Now its time for the eggs.
- Take a small sauce pan and put in a bit of butter/oil.
- The small is relatively important here, because it lets them bunch up and stay relatively thick, which I like.
- Cook the eggs sunny side up.
- DO NOT OVERCOOK.
- The crucial ingredient of heuvos rancheros is the yolk, which should spill out over the plate and mix richly in with the other ingredients.
- Then you can mop up the mixture with your tortillas.
- A solid yolk will not comply.
- So cook on medium-low heat, and watch closely.
- You want to take the eggs off the heat when the whites around the yolks have firmed, but the yolk still wobbles if touched.

- From here, arrange your plate how you want.
- Lather the ranchero sauce atop the eggs, keep it all separate, mix it with the beans.
- It's your show.
- One other note: Like all my recipes, this one is done to my taste, and my taste is fairly hot.
- If you don't want this to turn out painfully spicy, you can de-seed the jalapeno, or omit it altogether.
- You can use less chile in adobo sauce (though you should still use some of the sauce for flavor).
- It's your breakfast, no need to be a hero.
