Step 1
Heat oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high. Brown ground beef with diced onion, breaking up meat with a spoon, until no pink remains, ~5 minutes.
Step 2
Stir in cumin. Add 1 cup enchilada sauce to the beef. Simmer for 2 minutes until fragrant.
Step 3
Spread remaining sauce on the skillet bottom. Layer 2 tortillas, half the beef mixture, 0.5 cup cheese. Repeat layers: 2 tortillas, remaining beef, 0.5 cup cheese.
Step 4
Top with final 2 tortillas and 0.5 cup cheese. Cover and cook over medium until edges bubble and cheese melts, ~5 minutes.
Step 5
Make two wells in the cheese top. Crack an egg into each well. Cover and cook until whites set but yolks jiggle, ~3 minutes.
Step 6
Slide onto a plate. Serve hot with lime and hot sauce on the side.
