Method
Preparation
- Cut the corn tortillas into wedges or strips. Heat a skillet with a little oil over medium heat and fry the tortilla pieces until they are golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
- In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low and add the diced onion. Sauté until translucent, about 2-3 minutes, then return the crispy tortilla pieces to the skillet.
- Pour your chosen salsa over the tortilla chips and mix well until they are fully coated. Let it simmer together for 2-3 minutes to meld the flavors.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top, cover the skillet, and let it cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and gooey.
- Transfer the chilaquiles to a serving dish and drizzle sour cream on top. Garnish with sliced avocado, chopped cilantro, and any additional toppings of your choice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Share the joy of this dish with your family and watch as smiles spread across the table!
Notes
For the perfect chilaquiles, choose your salsa based on spiciness, avoid overcrowding the skillet when frying tortillas, and serve immediately for the best texture. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
