What’s more perfect for brunch than a dish that got its start as a creative way to use up leftovers? Chilaquiles [chee-lah-KEE-lehs] typically consist of corn tortillas topped with chiles, cheese, and chorizo. But the possibilities are endless! This version is topped with chicken, eggs, radishes, and avocado.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 ½ cups thinly sliced red onion
- 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
- 2 (16 ounce) jars salsa verde
- 1 pound shredded cooked skinless, boneless chicken breast
- 1 (10 ounce) bag tortilla chips
- 1 (2.25 ounce) can sliced black olives, drained
- ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 8 eggs
- 1 dash salt
- 1 dash ground black pepper
- ½ cup crumbled cotija cheese
- 4 radishes, sliced, or to taste
- 1 avocado, sliced, or to taste
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Step 2
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and jalapeno; cook, stirring occasionally, until onion begins to brown, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a very large bowl. Add salsa, chicken, chips, olives, and cilantro. Toss to coat, breaking chips slightly. Transfer to a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Step 3
Use the bottom of a custard or measuring cup to make 8 indentations in the chip mixture. Crack 1 egg into each indentation. Sprinkle eggs evenly with salt and black pepper.
Step 4
Bake until eggs are set and tortilla chips are softened and browned at edges, 20 to 25 minutes. Sprinkle with cotija cheese, radishes, and avocado.
