Mexican
Chilaquiles Verdes
★★★★½ (4.6)
Crispy fried tortilla chips simmered just until softened in a tangy green salsa, topped with a fried egg and crumbled cheese - the ultimate quick breakfast for using up day-old tortillas.
- Ready in 30 minutes and uses up stale tortillas perfectly
- Tangy homemade tomatillo salsa beats any jarred version
- Fried egg on top turns it into a full, satisfying breakfast
- 8 corn tortillas, cut into sixths (or 5 cups store-bought tortilla chips)
- 1 cup vegetable oil, for frying (if making chips from scratch)
- +11 more ingredients
- If making your own chips, heat 1 cup of oil in a large skillet over medium heat until a tortilla piece dropped in sizzles instantly. Fry the tortilla pieces in batches for 2 minutes, flipping once, until golden and crisp. Drain on paper towels and lightly salt. Skip this step if using store-bought chips.
