Smoky Huevos Rancheros

by George Duran

There is nothing I love more than eggs for breakfast, except when you top them with my smoky tomato salsa made with Hunt’s.

Ingredients

2 Tbsp. olive oil
½ medium onion, finely chopped
½ green pepper, finely chopped
½ jalapeño pepper, finely chopped
1 14.5-ounce can Hunt’s diced tomatoes, drained
1 tsp. paprika
½ tsp. cumin
1 tsp. salt
¼ tsp. ground pepper
8 large eggs
4 6-inch corn flour tortillas
Pam non-stick spray
Chopped cilantro for garnish

Directions

Make salsa by softening onions, green peppers, and jalapeño peppers in a medium saucepan on medium heat, for about 3-4 minutes. Add drained tomatoes, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper and allow to simmer, uncovered for 5 minute. Set aside.

Spray some Pam non-stick spray on both sides of a tortilla and place it on a small 6-8 inch non-stick frying pan or egg pan on medium-low heat. Cook the first side of the tortilla for about 3 minutes, flip, and carefully add two eggs on top of the tortilla.  Place a line of two heaping tablespoons of salsa between the two eggs, cover pan, and bring heat to low. Allow eggs to cook between 3-4 minutes remove from heat and serve on a plate with chopped cilantro.
