3The Cook

    • Add your griddle or grill-safe pan or skillet to the grate.

    • When you’re at temp, drizzle olive oil on the griddle surface, crack your eggs and let them cook until over easy.

    • Place the pot with the black beans and chopped garlic on the grill.

    • Toast the tortillas on the cool side of the grill.

    • Cook the onions on the griddle or grill-safe pan or skillet until they caramelize.

    • Add the jalapeños to the griddle or grill-safe pan or skillet to blister. Blistering the jalapeños will take out some of the heat.

    • Once onions and jalapeños are done, chop them for serving.

    • Chop the avocado slices.

    • To assemble, layer 2 tortillas with eggs and beans on a plate. Top with a generous amount of cheese, grilled onions, salsa, sour cream, chopped avocado and cilantro.

    • Enjoy with your favorite hot sauce or chopped jalapeños.
