Skillet Poached Huevos Rancheros Real Simple Food

POACHED HUEVOS RANCHEROS

Steps:

• Bring water and vinegar to a light boil in a shallow pan. Make sure there is enough water to cover eggs.
• In a separate stainless steel skillet heat 1 tbs broth. Sauté onion in broth over medium heat for about 5 minutes stirring frequently, until translucent. Add garlic, beans, red chili powder, cumin, and rest of broth while egg water is coming to a boil. Cook beans for about 10 minutes on medium low heat, stirring occasionally. Add cilantro, salt and pepper.
• To poach eggs, crack into water and cook about 5 minutes, just until the white is set and the yolk have filmed over. Remove with a slotted spoon, and place eggs over beans. Serve with salsa, shredded romaine lettuce and avocado.

QUICK HUEVOS RANCHEROS FOR ONE

Steps:

• Saute onion in oil in a 9" saute pan until softened and slightly caramelized.
• Add tomatoes and enchilada sauce and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. (I used canned tomatoes which had juice, you might need to add some more enchilada sauce or water if using fresh tomatoes. You want to wind up with enough sauce so that the eggs can be poached in the sauce.).
• Meanwhile, heat the corn tortillas over the stove burner set on low, flipping and being careful not to burn. (I have gas burners, I'm not sure if you can do this with electric burners.).
• Spread the refried beans over the corn tortillas and heat in the microwave for 30 seconds, are until the beans are heated.
• Once the sauce has come to a boil, turn heat down to medium low and break the eggs directly into the sauce. Cover pan and cook until the eggs are done to your liking. (I like my eggs soft cooked, so this only took a few minutes for me.).
• To serve, pick up each egg with a large spoon and place on the tortilla. Then pour the rest of the sauce over the eggs and top with the cheese and green onion.

HUEVOS RANCHEROS

Steps:

• In medium saucepan, saute onion till soft, add beans (undrained) cook on med. heat.
• Heat oil on med.- high heat in a skillet.
• Fry tortillas till crisp, about 2-3 min on each side -- nobody likes soggy tortillas.
• Turn down heat a bit! Using leftover oil from same pan, fry eggs over easy, about 2 minutes, then flip, then only 1 minute more! If you need to add a little more oil, do it. It's easier to flip the eggs without breaking the yolk.
• Top tortillas with egg, El Pato, beans. Garnish with diced avacado & crumble Cojita cheese on top!
