Halal Huevos Rancheros is a vibrant and flavorful twist on a classic American brunch dish, featuring spiced eggs served on a bed of corn tortillas with a zesty tomato sauce. This dish balances the richness of eggs with the freshness of herbs and spices, making it a deliciously satisfying meal.

Ingredients

• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Corn tortillas - 2 pieces
• Large eggs - 4 pieces
• Canned diced tomatoes - 400 grams
• Red onion - 1 small, diced
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Bell pepper (red or green) - 1 small, diced
• Cumin - 1 teaspoon
• Chili powder - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - to taste
• Black pepper - to taste
• Fresh cilantro - 2 tablespoons, chopped
• Avocado - 1 small, sliced
• Lime - 1, cut into wedges

Steps

1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced red onion and bell pepper, cooking until softened, about 5 minutes.
2. Stir in the minced garlic, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another minute until fragrant.
3. Add the canned diced tomatoes (with juice) to the skillet, and let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4. In a separate pan, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Fry the eggs to your desired doneness (sunny-side-up or over-easy), about 3-4 minutes.
5. Meanwhile, lightly toast the corn tortillas in a dry skillet until warm and slightly crispy, about 1-2 minutes per side.
6. To assemble, place each tortilla on a plate. Spoon the tomato sauce over each tortilla and top with two fried eggs.
7. Garnish with fresh cilantro, avocado slices, and serve with lime wedges on the side.
