Easy Chilaquiles Recipe - My Favorite Mexican Breakfast

My favorite Mexican breakfast dish is a chilaquiles rojos recipe. Chilaquiles are tortillas served with a delicious pepper sauce. For this recipe I use tomatoes and smoky ancho peppers, or dried poblanos, to create a rich, red, salsa topping. Another version of this dish is Chilaquiles verdes, which is topped with a green sauce, but I prefer the red sauce version.

Ingredients for this Chilaquiles Recipe

Chilaquiles Sauce:
1-2oz ANCHO PEPPERS (dried poblano)
1 med ONION
3 med TOMATOES
1-2 cloves GARLIC
1 tsp SALT

TORTILLA CHIPS
CHEESE (a crumbly white cheese)
CREMA (thickened cream)
Chopped raw ONIONS

How to Make Chilaquiles Rojos

Heat 5-6 cups of water in a heavy bottomed pot.
Remove the stems and seeds from the dried peppers.
Into the pot add the roughly chopped onion, garlic, tomato, peppers, and salt.
Bring the pot to a boil, then reduce the heat and cover. Let the pot simmer for 30 minutes.
Pour away excess water from the pot and reserve if needed.
Add the contents of the pot into a blender and mix until smooth. I like to add about a cup of half and half into the blender for extra creaminess. If the sauce is too thick, thin with the reserved water.
Heat a skillet on medium heat and cover the bottom with some of the blended sauce.
Arrange the chips evenly across the skillet, as many as desired.
Top chips with half of the crumbled cheese and chopped onion.
Pour remaining sauce or as much as desired over the skillet contents.
Sprinkle with remaining chopped onion and cheese.
Drizzle with crema and serve immediately as a breakfast side or main dish.
