Huevos Ranchero Sauce

Erica
Huevos Ranchero Sauce is the creamy classic sauce served over Mexican "rancher's eggs", but this easy sauce with fire-roasted tomatoes, chiles, roasted red pepper, and cream is light and flavorful to complement so much more than just eggs.

Instructions
 

  • Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Add the onion, garlic, and pinch salt, and cook, stirring often, until the onion is softened.
  • Add the remaining ingredients. Use an immersion blender to blend ingredients together until smooth.
  • Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer the ranchero sauce gently, stirring regularly, for 30 minutes to concentrate and blend flavors.
  • Taste for seasoning and add the butter. Yields a little over 4 cups sauce.
