Huevos Rancheros is a vibrant and hearty Mexican breakfast dish that brings together crispy corn tortillas, savory black beans, and perfectly fried eggs topped with zesty salsa. This simple yet satisfying meal is perfect for any time of day, whether you’re looking for a quick breakfast or a leisurely brunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 15 oz can black beans (rinsed and drained)
  • 1 ¼ cups salsa (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 corn tortillas
  • 1 tbsp butter (or olive oil)
  • 4 large eggs
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 large avocado (sliced)
  • Crumbled Cotija cheese (optional)
  • Fresh cilantro (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a small skillet, combine the black beans and ½ cup of salsa. Heat over medium until simmering, then reduce to low and cook for about 5 minutes, partially mashing the beans.
  2. In another skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high. Fry the tortillas for about 30-90 seconds on each side until crispy, keeping them warm between paper towels.
  3. In a nonstick skillet, melt butter or oil over medium heat to fry the eggs to your liking—aim for runny yolks.
  4. Assemble by placing a tortilla on each plate, topping it with the bean mixture, a fried egg, remaining salsa, sliced avocado, and optional garnishes.
