Chilaquiles Verde
Chilaquiles Verde
Chilaquiles is a very popular Mexican breakfast dish. It involves frying corn tortillas, then cooking them in a salsa, either green or red. The chilaquiles are then topped with Mexican table cream, queso fresco, and cilantro. The chilaquiles can be accompanied by beans, fried eggs, or even shredded chicken. I’ve made this dish on top of crumbled chorizo before, which is even better!In this recipe, I decided to use salsa verde since I made so much of it. Everything in the recipe is self explanatory. The only thing I would recommend is frying the tortillas in multiple batches to avoid overcrowding in the pan. If you don’t, the chips will absorb the oil and not become crispy.
