Chilaquiles Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Tortillas

   Cut the tortillas into quarters or strips. In a large skillet, heat a small amount of oil over medium heat. Add the tortilla pieces and fry until they are crispy and golden brown, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.

2. 2

   Cook the Chorizo

   In the same skillet, add the bacon chorizo and cook over medium heat until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally to break it up into smaller pieces.

3. 3

   Prepare the Eggs

   In a separate pan, poach or fry the heritage eggs to your desired doneness (sunny-side up, over-easy, etc.). Season with salt and pepper.

4. 4

   Prepare the Salsa

   If using a store-bought salsa, ensure it is heated. If making homemade salsa, blend together tomatoes, onion, cilantro, lime juice, and jalapeno to taste.

5. 5

   Assemble the Chilaquiles

   In a large serving dish, layer the crispy tortilla pieces, followed by the cooked chorizo, and then pour the house salsa over the top. Gently toss to combine.

6. 6

   Garnish and Serve

   Top the chilaquiles with the poached or fried eggs, a drizzle of crema, and sprinkle chopped jalapeno and cilantro on top. Serve immediately.
