Take note
Make sure to handle the chili peppers with caution. Wash your hands thoroughly after handling them and avoid touching your face or eyes. Also, keep an eye on the heat level of your sauce, as some brands can be spicier than others.

1

Prepare the Sauce

In a saucepan, heat some olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Next, add diced tomatoes, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and sugar. Stir well to combine. Let the sauce simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

2

Prepare the Beans

In another saucepan, heat some olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, cumin, and oregano. Stir and cook for another minute. Then, add canned black beans (drained and rinsed) and water. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for 10 minutes, or until the beans are heated through. Mash some of the beans with the back of a spoon to thicken the mixture.

3

Cook the Eggs

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet one by one, taking care not to break the yolks. Cook the eggs until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 3-4 minutes. You can cover the skillet with a lid to help the cooking process. Season the eggs with salt and pepper.

4

Assemble and Serve

To assemble the Huevos Rancheros, start by spreading a spoonful of the bean mixture on a plate or a tortilla. Place a fried egg on top of the beans. Spoon the tomato sauce over the egg and garnish with chopped cilantro, sliced avocado, crumbled queso fresco, and a squeeze of lime juice. Serve with warm tortillas or crusty bread. Enjoy!
