Ingredients
  

Chilaquiles

  • 6 corn tortillas - stale is perfect!
  • cooking spray
  • sea salt
  • a drizzle of olive or coconut oil
  • ½ small onion - vertically sliced or chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic - minced
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 cup cooked black beans
  • ½ cup Hatch green chile
  • 1 cup vegetable stock +/- - see notes
  • sea salt and fresh ground pepper to taste

Garnishes

  • avocado - sliced or diced,
  • cotija - or other cheese, crumbled or grated
  • cilantro - chopped
  • scallions - chopped
  • jalapeño - serrano, or other chiles, sliced thin
  • eggs cooked to preference - optional

Instructions

  • Prepare tortillas by either baking 10-15 minutes at 350° or frying. Set aside
  • To a good-sized sauté pan over medium-high heat, add the oil, onion, and garlic. Cook until onion is soft and translucent.
  • Add the cumin. Sauté another minute or two until fragrant.
  • Add the black beans and Hatch green chile. Stir to combine.
  • Add the baked or fried tortilla strips, then pour about half the broth over top. Stir, and press tortilla strips into the mixture.
  • Add more broth as needed. Mixture should be moist not soupy.
  • Season with salt and pepper. Taste it!
  • Cook eggs according to preference.
  • Garnish as desired. Enjoy!

Notes

As I mention in the post, eggs aren't traditionally a part of chilaquiles, though you will definitely find them in recipes and restaurant menus. We typically start our day, and basted soft eggs are our "go to" egg. Choose your favorite!
I prep all my garnishes up front, then pop the chilaquiles in a preheated warm oven (from baking the tortilla strips) to stay warm while I make the eggs.
