Chilaquiles are corn tortilla chips simmered and softened in salsa verde (Chilaquiles Verdes) or
enchilada sauce (Chilaquiles Rojos), topped with cheese then served with eggs, beans, cilantro, radishes and/or sour cream. They are intoxicatingly flavorful from the aromatic bath, use pantry friendly ingredients so they can be made at any time, are a scrumptious way to use leftover Mexican chicken, pork or beef, and SO versatile – you can top them with virtually anything. They are also fabulous for make ahead meals or entertaining because the chips, sauce and toppings can all be prepped in advance- just add chips to the simmering sauce, top with cheese and bake for 5 minutes - THAT’S IT!
