Preparing Zesty Lemon Parsley Dip
Ingredients You’ll Need
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- ¼ cup onion, diced
- ½ cup bell pepper, diced
- 1 clove garlic, pressed
- ½ cup kidney beans, drained and rinsed
- 2 tbsp G&K Taco Spice
- 1 cup salsa
- 4 eggs
- ¼ tsp salt
- Optional toppings: jalapenos, cilantro, salt, and pepper
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prep Your Ingredients
Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil over medium heat in a large pan with a lid. While it heats, peel and dice the onion, then add it to the hot oil. Let it soften, stirring occasionally.
Step 2: Add Bell Pepper
Wash and dice the bell pepper. Once the onion begins to soften, toss the bell pepper into the pan. Stir frequently to prevent burning and ensure everything cooks evenly.
Step 3: Add Garlic and Kidney Beans
Peel and press the garlic into the pan. Add the kidney beans (make sure to drain and rinse them first) and continue stirring to combine all the ingredients.
Step 4: Salsa and Taco Spice
Pour in the salsa and sprinkle the taco spice blend and salt into the mix. Stir well to combine, then reduce the heat to low and let everything simmer for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavours to meld together.
Step 5: Add Eggs
Once the salsa and vegetables have simmered, use a spoon to create four small wells in the sauce. Crack an egg into each well. Cover the pan with a lid and cook for 6-8 minutes, or until the eggs reach your desired level of doneness.
Step 6: Serve
Once the eggs are cooked, remove the pan from the heat. Take off the lid and top with sliced jalapenos, fresh cilantro, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Tips for Customizing:
- Add More Heat: For those who love spice, throw in some extra jalapenos or a pinch of cayenne pepper when cooking the vegetables.
- Top with Avocado: Slice some avocado on top for a creamy contrast to the spiciness.
- Swap Beans: Kidney beans are great here, but feel free to swap them out for black beans or pinto beans based on your preference.
