Ingredients

10 corn tortillas, cut into 1-inch strips
All-natural olive oil cooking spray
2 tablespoons Spice Blend, recipe follows
One 15-ounce can diced fire-roasted tomatoes or diced tomatoes with green chilies
One 15-ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 1/2 pounds cooked chopped beef brisket
1 1/2 cups shredded pepper jack cheese
1 cup shredded sharp white Cheddar
4 to 6 large or jumbo organic eggs (1 per person)
Butter, for the skillet
Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish
Thinly sliced fresh Fresno and jalapeno peppers, for garnish
Lime wedges, for garnish
1/4 cup kosher salt
1/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
3 tablespoons sweet or smoked sweet paprika
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon mustard seeds
2 teaspoons ground coriander
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 1/2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Arrange the tortilla strips on a wire rack set over a baking sheet. Spray the tortillas with cooking spray and sprinkle with the Spice Blend. Bake until crisp and golden, 7 to 8 minutes. Spread the tomatoes in the bottom of a 12-to-13-inch casserole dish and scatter the beans on top. Top with the tortillas, then the beef, and finally sprinkle with the cheeses. Bake until the filling is bubbling and the top is browned. Meanwhile, fry the eggs in butter in a skillet. Divide the casserole among plates and serve each portion with a fried egg. Garnish with cilantro, chile peppers and lime wedges.
Combine the salt, brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, mustard seeds, coriander, cumin, ginger, oregano, cayenne and cinnamon.

4 ounces Mexican tomato sauce
2 teaspoons salt
6 eggs, beaten

1/2 cup onion, chopped
1/4 cup canola oil
12 corn tortillas, stale

Cook stirring constantly until eggs are firm.Stir in the tomato sauce, reduce heat to low or simmer until thickened, about 5 to 7 minutes.

Tips:

Use stale tortillas: Stale tortillas are less likely to break apart when cooked and will absorb the sauce better.
Cut the tortillas into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
Fry the tortillas in a single layer: This will prevent them from sticking together.
Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the tortillas will not cook evenly.
Cook the tortillas until they are crispy: This will give them a nice texture and flavor.
Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what will really make your chilaquiles shine. Use a sauce that is flavorful and has a good amount of heat.
Add your favorite toppings: Chilaquiles are a great dish to top with your favorite ingredients. Some popular toppings include cheese, sour cream, avocado, salsa, and eggs.
