Ingredients for Avocado Huevos Rancheros:
Method of preparing the Avocado Huevos Rancheros:
-
For the sauce, sauté the onions in the oil 2-3 minutes, and add the garlic for another 1 minute. Add the rest of the ingredients except the cream, simmer for 10 minutes and remove from heat. Puree in a blender and season with salt and pepper to taste.
-
In a large skillet, brown the chorizo over medium-high heat, breaking up any clumps with a wooden spatula. Cook for 5-10 minutes, until golden brown and crispy. Set aside.
-
On the same skillet heat the tortillas for 3-5 seconds on each side, one at a time. Add more oil if needed. When the tortillas are golden and slightly puffed up, transfer them to paper towels to drain excess oil.
-
Now fry the egg in the same skillet. Traditionally, Huevos Rancheros are served with sunny-side-up eggs. Set aside.
-
Place 2 tortillas per plate. Top each tortilla with a spoon of black beans, one egg, a spoonful of chorizo, plenty of ranchero sauce, sliced peppers and avocado, a sprinkling of queso fresco, and a dash of chopped fresh cilantro.
-
Enjoy fresh!
Chef's Tip:
You can warm up the beans instead of using fresh from the can.
