Scrambled Huevos Rancheros Recipes

Steps:

• For the ranchero sauce: Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F and put the tomatoes, garlic cloves and onion on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast the vegetables, turning occasionally, until blistered and charred in spots, about 35 minutes. When cool enough to handle, remove the papery skins from the garlic.
• Meanwhile, bring a small pot of water to a boil. Add the ancho chiles, cover, and remove from the heat. Let sit for 10 minutes, then drain and pat dry.
• Put the vegetables and any juices from the baking sheet into a blender. Add the ancho chiles, 1/2 teaspoon each chopped chipotle and adobo sauce and 1/2 teaspoon salt and blend until fairly smooth. Taste; if you want the sauce spicier, stir in the remaining chopped chipotle and adobo sauce.
• Heat the oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add the sauce (it will sizzle) and 1/3 cup water and cook, stirring, until thickened but pourable, about 5 minutes. Taste and season with salt as necessary. Cover and keep warm over low heat. If the sauce thickens too much, add 1 tablespoon of water at a time to thin it out.
• For the refried beans: Put the beans in a medium bowl with about half of their reserved liquid and mash with a potato masher until smooth. Heat the vegetable oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat until shimmering, then add the mashed beans and a big pinch of salt and mash again until smooth. Cook, stirring and scraping with a rubber spatula, until heated through. If the beans seem dry, add some more of the reserved liquid until they are creamy. Taste, season with salt if necessary and cover and keep warm over low heat.
• For serving: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F and line a baking sheet with paper towels. Heat 2 teaspoons vegetable oil in a medium skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add 1 tortilla and cook until the underside blisters, about 15 seconds. Flip the tortilla with tongs and continue to cook until the underside blisters, about 15 seconds. Remove from the pan to the lined baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining 7 tortillas, adding more oil if necessary. Spread about 2 tablespoons of the refried beans on each tortilla and keep warm in the oven.
• Using the same skillet the tortillas were fried in, heat 1 tablespoon oil until shimmering, about 1 minute. Crack 4 eggs into the skillet and cook until the edges are crispy and whites are almost set. Cover the skillet with a big pot lid and cook until the whites are completely set, 1 more minute. Remove the tortillas from the oven, top four with an egg, then return to the oven and repeat with the 4 remaining eggs.
• Top the remaining tortillas with the remaining eggs. Sprinkle each with a pinch of salt, some ranchero sauce, Cotija cheese, cilantro and onion. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Spray 8 inch square baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
• Place 4 tortillas in bottom of dish, overlapping as necessary, about 1/2 to 1 inch up sides of dish. Cut the last tortilla in half, and then into strips.
• Sprinkle 1/2 cup of the cheese over tortillas in dish. Top with chorizo, chiles and 1/2 cup cheese.
• Arrange tortilla strips over cheese.
• In medium bowl, combine eggs, milk, oregano and red pepper; beat well. Pour over mixture in baking dish.
• Sprinkle with remaining cheese; press lightly into egg mixture.
• Cover with foil and refrigerate 8 hours or overnight.
• Heat oven to 350. Bake covered casserole 30 minutes.
• Uncover, bake an additional 15 to 20 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean.
• Let stand 5 minutes before serving. Serve with salsa.

Steps:

• Set oven to broil (500F).
• Spray large frying pan with cooking spray, or heat oil. On medium heat, LIGHTLY fry tortilla on both sides. Tortilla should be slightly browned, but not crispy. Set aside on oven safe plate.
• Respray frying pan, and fry eggs until bottom of whites are just cooked. Add 1 tbsp water to pan and cover with lid. cook eggs approx 30-40 seconds. Eggs should be opaque, but not completely cooked.
• Transfer eggs on top of tortilla.
• Spread salsa on top of eggs. Be careful not to break the yolks.
• Add several dashes of hot sauce (optional).
• Cover with grated cheese.
• Place under broiler for approx 5 minutes (time will vary with different ovens). Remove when cheese is thoroughly melted, and tortilla and cheese are both suficiently browned.

Steps:

• Place tomatoes, garlic, and dried red chile in a blender and puree until smooth. Set aside.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a medium saucepan cook onion slices for 1 minute. Strain the pureed sauce into the saucepan with onion. Season with salt and crushed oregano. Cook over medium heat for 3 minutes. Keep mixture at a simmer. Have warm plates ready.
• Fry tortillas in remaining 4 tablespoons of oil in a medium skillet. Drain and place 1 on each plate. Fry eggs in butter 1 at a time. Place eggs on each tortilla and cover with the sauce.

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!

Steps:

• Heat oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Fry tortillas one at a time until firm, but not crisp. Remove to paper towels to drain grease.
• Meanwhile, combine the refried beans and butter in a microwave-safe dish. Cover, and cook in the microwave until heated through. When tortillas are done, fry eggs over easy in the skillet. Add more oil if the tortillas have absorbed it all.
• Place tortillas onto plates, and spread a layer of beans on them. Top with cheese, a fried egg, crumbled bacon and if desired, salsa.

Steps:

• I recommend using a 10 inch non-stick frying pan.
• Pour enough vegetable oil into the pan to fully cover bottom of pan. Heat on medium-high until oil hot.
• One at a time, put in a tortilla and lightly brown. About a minute per side.
• After removing, place on a paper towel to drain. Depending on how many you're making, you may want to have oven on 200 & place in there to keep warm.
• Add oil as needed to keep bottom of pan covered.
• After tortillas are all fried, turn down the heat to medium and allow to cool slightly.
• Add the eggs to the oil. I usually fry 3 at once in this size pan. If you want runny yolks, fry until whites brown around the edges and remove. If you want firm yokes, when the whites brown around the edges, gently turn over using a slotted spatula or spoon.
• Assembly: On plate(in this order), place one tortilla, bacon (cut each slice in half & arrange in an "X" formation), egg, cheese and Ranchero.
• If you want to make a little spicier serving, after frying the tortillas you can dip each in ranchero sauce before assembly.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Brush tortillas on both sides with 2 tablespoons canola oil; lay on a baking sheet. Bake until crisp and brown around edges, 7 to 10 minutes.
• In bowl, beat eggs with salt and pepper. Heat remaining tablespoon oil in large skillet over medium-low heat. Cook eggs, stirring, until set but still moist, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Place tortillas on plates; top with eggs, sauce rancheros, and Monterey Jack. Garnish with avocado, sour cream, and cilantro.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Place chipotle pepper and jalapeno pepper in small saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil and turn off heat. Set aside until chipotle is softened, about 30 minutes, and drain. If you want a milder salsa, seed peppers.
• Meanwhile place tomatillos and tomatoes in a shallow metal baking pan and roast in oven for 15-20 minutes and remove without turning off oven.
• Transfer to a blender and add drained peppers (you might want to start with half a pepper each and adjust according to taste) and oil, oregano, marjoram, lime juice, salt & pepper and cilantro, if desired. Blend well until smooth.
• Place tortillas on a large baking sheet and spread evenly with cheese. Bake about 3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook eggs to taste (scrambled, fried or poached).
• Place an egg on each tortilla, and top with a generous tablespoon of sauce, onions, parmesan cheese and cilantro if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler.
• Heat the tortillas by toasting them one at a time in a dry cast-iron skillet or directly over a gas flame until lightly toasted; Place on a baking sheet, spread each tortilla with ¼ cup of refried beans, and cover to keep warm.
• Working in batches as needed, heat the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it is very hot but not smoking and the foaming has subsided; Crack the eggs directly into the hot butter and reduce the heat to medium-low or low; Fry the eggs, shaking the pan occasionally to keep the eggs from sticking; Season the eggs with salt and pepper; Fry to the desired doneness, about 2 minutes for "sunny-side up," 3 minutes for medium yolks, and 4 minutes for hard yolks; Or, once the whites are just opaque, turn the eggs and cook for 30 seconds more for "over easy," 1 minute more for "over medium," or 2 minutes more for "over hard.".
• Top each tortilla with 2 fried eggs and 2 tablespoons of the grated cheese; Slide the tortillas under the broiler to melt the cheese.
• Meanwhile, dice the avocado and toss with the lime juice to prevent the avocado from discoloring.
• Top each serving with 2 tablespoons salsa and 2 tablespoons sour cream; Divide the avocado among the tortillas; Garnish each tortilla with 1 tablespoon cilantro and 1 tablespoon green onion and serve.
