Instructions

Follow these step-by-step instructions to create amazing chilaquiles that your family will love:

1. Prepare Tortillas: Cut the corn tortillas into quarters or strips. You can either fry them or bake them until crispy. If frying, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and fry until golden and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
2. Heat the Salsa: In a large pan, warm your choice of red or green salsa over medium heat. You can add a little water if the salsa is too thick.
3. Add Tortillas: Once the salsa is heated, add the crispy tortilla pieces into the pan. Gently stir to coat the tortillas evenly with the salsa.
4. Add Protein: If you like, mix in the cooked shredded chicken (or another protein) and heat through, ensuring everything is well combined.
5. Serve: Use a spatula to transfer the chilaquiles to serving plates.
6. Top: Crumble queso fresco on top, add slices of avocado, and dollops of sour cream.
7. Garnish: Sprinkle chopped cilantro over the dish and add slices of jalapeños, if desired.
8. Eggs (Optional): For an extra indulgence, serve each plate topped with a fried egg.
9. Enjoy: Serve immediately while hot and fresh to enjoy the maximum crunch of the tortillas.

By following these straightforward steps, you will have a plate of chilaquiles that showcases vibrant flavors and satisfying textures.
