Ingredients

• 4 corn tortillas
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup canned black beans
• 0.5 onion, diced
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 0.5 jalapeno, diced
• 1 cup canned diced tomatoes
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 0.5 cup sour cream
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon pepper
• 1 avocado, sliced
• 0.25 cup crumbled cotija cheese (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Lightly fry the corn tortillas one at a time for about 1 minute per side until they are golden and crisp. Drain on paper towels and set aside.

Step 2

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Sauté the diced onion, garlic, and jalapeno for 3-4 minutes until softened and aromatic.

Step 3

Add the canned diced tomatoes, black beans, ground cumin, and half of the salt and pepper. Cook on medium heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens slightly.

Step 4

While the beans are simmering, prepare the cumin lime cream. In a small bowl, combine sour cream, lime juice, the remaining salt, and a pinch of ground cumin. Mix well and set aside.

Step 5

Wipe the skillet clean and fry the eggs to your preferred doneness – sunny-side-up works best for this dish.

Step 6

To assemble, place one tortilla on a plate. Spoon a generous portion of the black bean mixture on top. Add a fried egg and drizzle with the cumin lime cream.

Step 7

Top each serving with fresh cilantro, sliced avocado, and optional crumbled cotija cheese.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy your Fantastic Huevos Rancheros with Cumin Lime Cream!
