Easy Sheet Pan Huevos Rancheros Recipe
Huevos rancheros, a beloved Mexican breakfast dish, is a delicious combination of fried eggs, tortillas, salsa, and beans. While traditionally prepared on a skillet, this recipe offers a convenient and efficient way to make this classic dish using a sheet pan. This method is perfect for feeding a crowd or for a quick and easy weeknight meal.
Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 1/2 cup chopped bell pepper (any color)
- 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1/2 cup salsa (your favorite kind)
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 6 large eggs
- 6 corn tortillas
- Optional toppings: avocado slices, sour cream, crumbled cheese, hot sauce
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, onion, bell pepper, black beans, salsa, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Stir well.
- Spread the bean mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
- Make six indentations in the bean mixture, large enough to hold an egg.
- Crack an egg into each indentation.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your liking.
- While the eggs are baking, warm the tortillas in a microwave or skillet.
- To serve, place a warm tortilla on a plate and top with a portion of the bean mixture and an egg. Add your desired toppings.
Tips and Variations:
- For a spicier dish, use a hotter salsa or add a pinch of chili powder to the bean mixture.
- Feel free to add other vegetables to the bean mixture, such as chopped tomatoes, corn, or spinach.
- For a vegetarian option, substitute the eggs with a plant-based egg substitute.
- If you prefer a softer yolk, bake the eggs for a shorter time.
