This is one of my favorite breakfast/brunch dishes for using leftover tortillas and salsa. There are many different ways that you can make this Mexican dish, and here is just one. Try adding in beans or veggies that you might like, for a twist on the original recipe.
Chilaquiles
Serves 4
Ingredients
8 corn tortillas, cut into wedges
6 eggs, whisked with milk
scallions or chives, diced
salt
pepper
2 cups salsa
queso fresco
Directions
Heat 2tbs of oil in large skillet, and add tortillas. Stir frequently, and brown both sides. Remove the tortillas from pan and set aside on a paper towel to drain off excess oil. Add additional oil to the Mix together the egg and scallions and add to the pan, stirring occasionally to scramble the eggs. Once the eggs are cooked through, add half of the salsa to the mixture, along with the tortilla wedges. Mix everything together. Serve topped with remaining salsa and queso fresco.
Yummy! One of my favorites too. I've always known this dish as "Migas", and thought Chilaquiles were a similar dish without the egg - more like a tortilla casserole. Either way, this just reminded me that I have a whole pile of old tortillas just waiting to be made into breakfast on friday.
