1
Fry the Tortilla Chips
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the tortilla chips in batches and fry until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Season with salt to taste.
2
Combine with Salsa
In a large mixing bowl, combine the fried tortilla chips with the red salsa. Toss gently until the chips are evenly coated, being careful not to break them.

3
Fry the Eggs
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add a little more oil if necessary. Crack the eggs into the skillet and fry until the whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your desired doneness, about 2-4 minutes.
4
Assemble the Chilaquiles
On a serving plate, place a generous portion of the chilaquiles. Top with the fried eggs, crumbled queso fresco, fresh cilantro, avocado slices, and a dollop of sour cream. Serve with lime wedges on the side.
