GREEN CHILAQUILES WITH EGGS

This comforting Mexican dish is made with fried tortillas and salsa. Frying tortillas is easy, but you can use store-bought chips if you'd like; just be sure that they are thick, the type sold in bags at Mexican groceries or tortillerías.

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 pounds fresh tomatillos, husked and rinsed
2 to 4 jalapeño or serrano chiles, stemmed, to taste (seeded for a milder salsa)
12 cilantro sprigs, plus 1/3 cup chopped cilantro
2 tablespoons olive oil or grapeseed oil
1 small white onion, quartered and thinly sliced (about 1 cup sliced onion)
Salt
2 large garlic cloves, minced
2 cups chicken or vegetable broth
6 large eggs
12 thick corn tortillas, cut into wedges and deep-fried or microwaved until crisp (see note), or 1/2-pound thick tortilla chips from a Mexican grocery
1/2 cup crumbled queso fresco or feta

Steps:

  • Heat broiler. Place tomatillos and chiles on a baking sheet and set about 4 inches below broiler. Roast until dark and blackened in spots, about 5 minutes. Flip over and roast on other side until tomatillos are soft and charred in spots and chiles are soft all the way through, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool for 5 minutes.
  • Transfer tomatillos and chiles to a blender along with juices on baking sheet. Add cilantro sprigs, then blend to a coarse purée.
  • Heat oil over medium heat in a large, wide casserole or saucepan and add onion. Cook, stirring often, until tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Add a little salt, stir in garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Turn heat to medium-high and add tomatillo purée. Cook, stirring often, until salsa thickens and leaves a canal when you run a wooden spoon down the middle. Add broth, bring to a simmer, and simmer 10 minutes or until salsa coats the back of a spoon.
  • Beat eggs in a bowl and season with a little salt. Turn heat to low and stir eggs into salsa. Add chopped cilantro and stir until eggs are set. Mixture should be creamy.
  • Stir in tortilla chips, making sure they are completely submerged, and remove from heat. Sprinkle with crumbled cheese and serve at once.

CHILAQUILES

Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 8

Vegetable oil, for frying
Three 5-inch corn tortillas, cut into quarters
One 15-ounce can green enchilada sauce
2 tablespoons salted butter
2 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
2 tablespoons of your favorite salsa

Steps:

  • Heat 1 inch of vegetable oil over medium heat in a cast-iron skillet until it registers 350 degrees F on a candy/frying thermometer. (If you don't have a thermometer, carefully dip the corner of a tortilla wedge into the oil. If it sizzles, you are ready to fry.)
  • Carefully drop the tortilla quarters into the hot oil and fry, turning them halfway through with tongs or a spider, until crisp but not yet browned, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Remove the tortilla quarters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain; set aside.
  • Heat the enchilada sauce in a small pan over medium-high heat until hot. While it is heating, fry the eggs. Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and fry until the edges are nice and crispy, a minute or two. Season with salt and pepper.
  • While the eggs are frying, assembled your chilaquiles. In a shallow 1-quart dish, arrange half of the fried tortillas in a layer. Sprinkle them with half of the cheese. Pour enough of the hot enchilada sauce over the tortillas and cheese to cover most of the chips. Add the remaining chips to the dish in an even layer. Top with the remaining cheese and more sauce. The amount you add here is up to you. You may end up with some leftover enchilada sauce depending on your preference.
  • Top with the fried eggs and salsa of your choice. Enjoy while it's nice and hot.

CHILAQUILES SCRAMBLE



Chilaquiles Scramble image

My landlady in Mexico used to make chilaquiles when she had stale tortillas. She always scrambled the eggs in, instead of the more typical fried egg on top. It's a very flexible recipe, so use what you have on hand for a yummy brunch dish.

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons olive oil, divided, or to taste
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, finely chopped
1 small tomato, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup salsa verde (green salsa)
½ teaspoon ground cumin
salt and ground black pepper to taste
3 cups tortilla chips
5 eggs
½ cup crumbled Cotija cheese
1 avocado, sliced
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons sour cream, or to taste

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a saute pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and jalapeno. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion appears translucent, about 4 minutes. Add tomato and garlic; cook and stir for 1 minute. Add salsa and scrape any browned bits off the bottom of the pan. Season with cumin, salt, and pepper. Reduce heat and simmer for 2 minutes. Add tortilla chips to the pan and stir until coated with sauce.
  • Heat remaining oil in a separate pan over medium-high heat. Whisk eggs together and pour into the hot pan; cook until starting to set, about 2 minutes. Scrape cooked egg off the edges and fold into the center. Cook until eggs are halfway cooked but still runny, 2 to 3 minutes more. Fold into the tortilla chip mixture. Keep stirring to finish scrambling the eggs, about 2 minutes. Add Cotija cheese and turn off heat.

GREEN CHILAQUILES

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

15 to 20 tomatillos, husked and halved
5 to 7 serrano chiles, chopped
3 cloves garlic
1/4 cup cilantro, roughly chopped
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup chicken stock
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Vegetable oil, for frying
2 pounds corn tortillas, cut into wedges
10 large eggs
Queso fresco, for serving
Roughly chopped cilantro, for serving
Mexican crema, for serving

Steps:

  • For the tomatillo salsa: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Roast the tomatillos, chiles and garlic on a baking sheet until evenly charred, about 15 minutes. Combine the tomatillos, chiles, garlic, cilantro, cumin and half the onion in a blender and blend. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. With the blender running, slowly add the chicken stock until the salsa has a smooth, sauce-like consistency. Heat the oil in a medium saucepan, add the remaining onions and fry until translucent, approximately 3 minutes. Add the tomatillo salsa to the saucepan and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • For the totopos: Add enough vegetable oil to a deep frying pan to fry the tortilla chips. Heat to at least 350 degrees F. Fry the chips in batches until crispy, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Remove the chips from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain. Alternatively, you can skip this step and purchase your favorite brand of tortilla chips; use two 5-ounce bags for this recipe.
  • Add the chips to the salsa and stir well, fully submerging the chips in the sauce. Cover and let soak for at least 3 minutes.
  • Prepare the eggs to your liking; we prefer them fried over-easy.
  • To assemble: Pour the salsa and chips into a large, deep serving platter. Put the fried eggs on top and sprinkle to taste with queso fresco, cilantro and crema.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your chilaquiles.
  • Don't overcook the tortillas. They should be crispy, not soggy.
  • Use a good salsa. A flavorful salsa will make your chilaquiles even better.
  • Add your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings for chilaquiles include cheese, sour cream, avocado, and cilantro.
  • Serve chilaquiles immediately. They are best when they are hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

Chilaquiles is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With so many different variations, there is sure to be a chilaquiles recipe that everyone will love.
