Huevo in the Hole!

Huevo in the Hole
Original recipe by Ree Drummond


INGREDIENTS:

• 3 whole, small corn tortillas
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 whole egg
• 2 tablespoons shredded Mexican cheese
• salt and pepper, to taste
• salsa
• sour cream
• fresh cilantro 

DIRECTIONS:

1. Stack the three tortillas on top of one another and use a cookie cutter to cut a hole out of the middle. 
2. Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat and melt half the butter. Place the tortillas, still stacked, on the skillet so that the tortilla on the bottom soaks up some of the butter. Put a little butter in the center hole, then carefully crack in the egg. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and let it cook for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes.
3. Move the tortilla/egg away from the cooking area for a second, then melt on the rest of the butter. Carefully flip the tortilla/egg to the other side so that the tortilla on that side will soak up some of the butter.
4. Continue cooking for less than a minute.  Sprinkle on Mexican cheese while cooking.  
5. When egg is to your liking, transfer to a plate and serve with salsa, sour cream, and fresh cilantro.
