Skillet Huevos Rancheros is a flavorful Mexican-inspired breakfast made with crispy tortillas, savory beans, zesty tomato sauce, and perfectly baked eggs. Topped with fresh avocado, cilantro, and optional cheese, it's a one-pan wonder that will brighten your morning!
Heat olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add diced onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add minced garlic and chopped jalapeño (if using) and cook for another 30 seconds.
Stir in diced tomatoes, beans, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Let simmer for 5–7 minutes, until the sauce thickens slightly.
Gently press corn tortillas into the tomato-bean mixture, ensuring they form a flavorful base for the eggs.
Make small wells in the sauce and crack one egg into each well.
Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 8–12 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are done to your liking.
Remove from the oven and top with crumbled cheese, avocado slices, cilantro, and any other desired toppings. Serve immediately with lime wedges.
