For extra heat, replace one can or all of the mild Ro-Tel with the original variety. This dish pairs well with black beans.

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cans (10 ounces each) diced tomatoes and chiles, such as mild Ro-Tel
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 large cloves garlic, minced (1 tablespoon)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 cups thick tortilla chips (4 1/2 ounces), such as Wild Harvest Natural Yellow Corn
4 large eggs
1/4 cup crumbled queso fresco, plus more for serving
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a food processor, puree 1 can tomatoes and chiles. Heat oil in a 9-inch heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until just golden, about 45 seconds. Add puree and remaining 2 cans tomatoes and chiles. Bring to a boil; cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid is slightly reduced, 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in tortilla chips to coat, breaking some up.
  • Make a well in sauce with the back of a large spoon; crack 1 egg into it. Repeat with remaining 3 eggs. Season eggs with salt and pepper. Transfer skillet to oven and bake until whites are set and yolks are just barely set, about 11 minutes. Top with cheese and cilantro; serve, with more cheese.
