Huevos Rancheros is a Mexican dish traditionally served as a breakfast dish. This recipe takes the classic dish to the next level with the addition of cumin lime cream. The beans used in this recipe offer a boost of protein and fiber, making it a balanced and filling breakfast option. This dish is perfect for Sundays when you have a little more time in the morning or for a special brunch with friends and family. The crispy tortillas, melted cheese, and flavorful salsa add a touch of indulgence to an otherwise nutritious dish.

Instructions

1.In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, lime zest, lime juice, paprika, cumin, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
2.Heat a drizzle of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the refried beans and cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through.
3.Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the tortillas in a single layer and cook for about 1 minute on each side, until lightly charred and crispy on the edges. Transfer the tortillas to a plate and cover with a clean towel to keep warm.
4.Once the beans are heated, reduce the skillet heat to low and let it sit while you cook the eggs.
5.Heat a drizzle of oil in another large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 2-3 minutes.
6.To serve, spread a generous spoonful of the warmed beans onto each tortilla. Sprinkle with cheese and top with a fried egg. Spoon salsa over each egg and drizzle with the cumin lime cream. Garnish with additional lime zest, if desired.
