FLACO HUEVOS RANCHEROS WITH HOME-STYLE SALSA



Flaco Huevos Rancheros With Home-Style Salsa image

In honor of Cinco de Mayo, I'm offering up my own spin on Huevos Rancheros. This is a lightened-up version that's great for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The fresh salsa is a refreshing alternative and really brightens up an otherwise heavy dish.

Time 15m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, diced
2 tablespoons red onions, diced
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
2 teaspoons fresh jalapeno peppers, minced
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 small corn tortillas
1/2 cup refried beans, fat free (spicy)
2 eggs
1/4 cup reduced-fat Mexican cheese blend
1/2 avocado, sliced
2 tablespoons low-fat sour cream
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • For the salsa, mix the tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, jalapeno pepper, lime juice and olive oil in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
  • Toast the corn tortillas (I put them right in the toaster oven and they crisp up perfectly even).
  • Fry eggs until over-easy.
  • To assemble, top each tortilla with beans, egg and cheese. Broil until cheese melts. Finish with avocado, salsa and sour cream.

4 eggs
3 Roma tomatoes (plum tomatoes)
1 serrano chile
1/4 medium white onion
1 clove garlic
1/2 teaspoon thyme
1/2 cup cooking oil + 1 tablespoon
2 or 3 tablespoons of water
4 corn tortillas
Salt to taste (for the salsa)
1/2 cup refried beans
6 tortilla chips (to garnish the beans)

Steps:

  • SALSA
  • Roughly chop the tomatoes, onion, garlic and serrano chile.
  • Add to your blender jar.
  • Add 1/2 teaspoon thyme to the blender jar.
  • Add 2 tablespoons of water.
  • Blend until smooth. About 1 minute.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of cooking oil in a saucepan to hot.
  • Carefully, pour the contents of the blender into the saucepan with the hot oil. (Be careful, the liquid tends to spatter.)
  • Simmer for about 10 minutes until the salsa is deep red in color and has thickened slightly.
  • Salt to taste.
  • TORTILLAS
  • Pour 1/2 cup of cooking oil into a medium sized frying pan. The oil should be about 1/4 inch deep.
  • Heat the oil to medium hot.
  • Place the tortillas in the oil and fry for about 20 seconds on both sides. Fry them one at a time. Don't allow the tortilla to harden.
  • Drain the tortillas of excess oil on paper towles and set aside.
  • SUNNY SIDE UP EGGS
  • Use the same cooking oil that you used to fry the tortillas to cook the eggs. Maintain the oil medium hot.
  • Add two eggs to the hot oil and slightly tilt the pan to one side so that the eggs set closely together.
  • Cook until the white are just cooked through and the yolks are still runny.
  • SERVING
  • Place 2 tortillas on your serving plate and add a good sized spoonful of refried beans.
  • Gently place the eggs on the tortillas.
  • Spoon the warm spicy tomato salsa over the eggs.
  • Garnish the beans with 3 tortilla chips.
