Directions

Prep 20 minCook 25 min
  1. 1

    Set the oven rack 6 inches from the broiler. Dice the green bell pepper and onion and mince the garlic; toss with olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Spread on a parchment-lined sheet pan and broil on high until lightly charred, about 8–10 minutes, stirring once.

  2. 2

    Meanwhile, remove and discard the seeds from the dried ancho. In a saucepan over medium heat, toast the ancho pieces with oregano, cumin, and chipotle powder until fragrant, about 2–3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Stir in the diced tomatoes, water, and cider vinegar. Bring to a simmer and cook gently for 8–10 minutes.

  4. 4

    Transfer the sauce to a blender and blend until mostly smooth. Add the broiled vegetables and pulse a few times to combine while keeping some texture. Season to taste with salt if needed.

  5. 5

    Thinly slice the red cabbage and radishes. Chop the cilantro, cut the limes into wedges, and peel and dice the avocado.

  6. 6

    Warm a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Melt a small portion of the butter and fry the eggs in batches until the whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your liking; season lightly with salt and pepper.

  7. 7

    Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or directly over a low burner until pliable. For each taco, add an egg, spoon on warm ranchero sauce, and top with cabbage, radishes, cilantro, avocado, and cheese. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing.
