Bird's Nest/Huevos Rancheros


Bird's Nest is a new take on Huevos Rancheros. Originally, this recipe was made by Moi but many agree that I perfected the plate. Though it is never the same each time I make it, there are a few esstential ingredients to make it, and the rest are up to the cook.
THE MAIN INGREDIENTS:
2 tortillas, sliced
2 large onion rings
2 eggs
1 garlic, sliced
jalapeno slices
................................................
OTHER GOOD INGREDIENTS:
1 roma tomato, diced
bell pepper, sliced, diced, or rings
cilantro
cheese [i usually use cheddar, but any cheese will do]
................................................................................................
STEPS:
1. prepare the ingredients.
2. when the oil is hot lay the strips of tortillas in the pan, criss-crossing them so that they create a "nest" for the other ingredients. add the onion rings, garlic, bell pepper, and jalapenos.
3. when the tortillas begin to get crispy, crack the eggs into the onion rings. you may need a spoon to splash the oil onto the egg for it to cook fully.
4. after the egg is cooked place the birds nest on a plate and add the tomatoes, cilantro, cheese, and salt and pepper to taste. [sometimes if i have the ingredients I like to make a pico de gallo]
5. I also like to add cholula to make it even spicier.
6. Enjoy!
