1
Prepare the Tortillas
Cut the corn tortillas into quarters. In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Fry the tortilla pieces until golden and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
2
Prepare the Onion
Slice the onion into thin rings. Sauté in a small pan until translucent and slightly caramelized. Set aside.
3
Assemble the Chilaquiles
In the same skillet, add the fried tortilla pieces and pour the red chile sauce over them. Stir gently to coat the tortillas evenly. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until heated through.
4
Cook the Eggs
In a separate pan, cook the eggs to your preference (sunny side up, over easy, etc.).
5
Serve
Plate the chilaquiles and top with sautéed onions, crumbled cheese, and cooked eggs. Garnish with fresh cilantro and salt to taste.
