A Positive Image of Marriage & Family

 

I am so happy Valentine’s Day is on Saturday this year! My husband works in a traditional kitchen so, it’s usually the busiest day of the year for us as chefs. So my thought was if I cook a s*xy breakfast he loves, we can still get a little celebrating in on Valentine’s Day since he will be cooking at the restaurant all night. That’s what this marriage business is all about. You have to make it work. You have to adapt, and get those special moments in when you can. Steak and potatoes is one of his favorite things to eat, so I put a little spin on tradition this year for a s*xy breakfast. I think a mimosa on the side is going to be perfect with this. If your husband is anything like mine, he’ll love this breakfast in bed on Valentine’s Day.

Ribeye Juevos Rancheros
Serves 2

3 Red Potatoes, diced small

4 corn Tortillas

Fresh Salsa (jarred salsa would also work)
2 Small Tomatoes, diced
1 Jalapeño, seeds removed and diced
1 Yellow Bell Pepper, seeds removed and diced
1 Orange Bell Pepper, seeds removed and diced
2 Tbsp. Olive Oil
1 tsp. Minced Garlic
1 Tbsp. Cilantro, chopped fine
Juice of 1 Lime

1 6 oz Ribeye Steak, grilled, and sliced thin (We cook ours to a medium temperature. Leftover steak, or chicken both work great in this recipe.)

2 Eggs, Fried

1. Preheat oven to 350. Roast potatoes for 20 minutes. Cut your time in half by frying them in a little vegetable oil. Drain on paper towels and set aside.

2. Toss fresh Salsa ingredients in a bowl and set aside. This step really can be done the night before. In my opinion fresh salsa is always better the next day.

3. Fry tortillas for two minutes, or until crispy and golden.

4. To assemble the dish, place a spoonful of salsa on the plate first and top with one tortilla. Then add potatoes, steak, and another spoon of salsa. Add another tortilla and top with a little more salsa and a fried egg. (I like mine fried hard, but that’s just me.)

5. Assemble the second plate the same way, and dig in!

Served with sour cream and shredded cheddar cheese. I dash with hot sauce, if he likes it spicy!

BMWK, Have you ever had Juevos Rancheros?
