How to Make Skillet Eggs With Chipotle Peppers And Black Beans

  1. **Make the Salsa:** In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup diced tomatoes, 1/2 cup diced avocado, 1/4 cup chopped red onion, 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro, 1 tablespoon lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Gently mix and set aside.
  2. **Sauté Veggies:** Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1/2 medium onion, chopped, and 1/2 bell pepper (any color), chopped. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are golden and peppers are softened, about 10 minutes.
  3. **Add Flavor:** Add 2 cloves minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. **Incorporate Beans & Spices:** Stir in 1 (15-ounce) can black beans (rinsed and drained), 1-2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (minced, adjust to your spice preference), and 1 teaspoon ground cumin.
  5. **Simmer:** Cover the skillet, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 5 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
  6. **Season:** Season the bean mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. **Add Eggs:** Gently crack 4-6 large eggs, one at a time, into small cups. Carefully place the eggs on top of the bean mixture, spacing them evenly.
  8. **Cheese Please:** Sprinkle 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your preferred cheese) over the eggs.
  9. **Cook to Perfection:** Cover the skillet, increase heat to medium, and cook until the egg whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your desired doneness (5-8 minutes).
  10. **Serve it Up!:** Transfer the skillet eggs to plates. Top generously with the tomato-avocado salsa and serve immediately with warm tortillas (optional).
