Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Mexican Huevos Rancheros Frittata.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 425°F (220°C).
Step 2
While that warms up, grab a 9-inch baking dish and give it a light spritz of cooking spray to ensure your frittata doesn’t stick.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, take a fork and beat the eggs until they’re slightly frothy—this adds a lovely texture to your dish.
Step 4
Next, stir in some creamy sour cream along with your favorite Mexican seasoning, blending everything together until it’s well combined.
Step 5
Now, it’s time to add some vibrant flavors! Toss in the drained salsa, chopped tomatoes, diced onion, and fresh cilantro, mixing them into the egg mixture.
Step 6
Once everything is nicely incorporated, pour this colorful blend into your prepared baking dish.
Step 7
For a cheesy delight, sprinkle 3/4 cup of the Mexican cheese blend over the top and gently fold it in with a fork, allowing the cheese to mingle with the other ingredients.
Step 8
Slide the dish into your preheated oven and let it bake for about 20 minutes.
Step 9
You’ll know it’s ready when the frittata is firm and springs back when you give it a gentle press.
Step 10
When the timer goes off, take it out and sprinkle the remaining 3/4 cup of Mexican cheese blend on top, along with chopped jalapeños if you’re feeling adventurous.
Step 11
Pop it back in the oven for another 5 to 10 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and golden, creating a mouthwatering crust.
Step 12
Once it’s done, let your frittata rest for about 10 minutes—this helps it set perfectly.
Step 13
Finally, grab a serrated knife and slice into this delicious creation, ready to serve and enjoy! This frittata is not just a meal; it’s a celebration of flavors that will brighten your day.
