A dear neighbor shared this recipe. She used to make it from scratch, but my version takes a few shortcuts. -Marina Castle Kelley, Canyon Country, California

Steps:
- Heat 1 inch of vegetable oil over medium heat in a cast-iron skillet until it registers 350 degrees F on a candy/frying thermometer. (If you don't have a thermometer, carefully dip the corner of a tortilla wedge into the oil. If it sizzles, you are ready to fry.)
- Carefully drop the tortilla quarters into the hot oil and fry, turning them halfway through with tongs or a spider, until crisp but not yet browned, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Remove the tortilla quarters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain; set aside.
- Heat the enchilada sauce in a small pan over medium-high heat until hot. While it is heating, fry the eggs. Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and fry until the edges are nice and crispy, a minute or two. Season with salt and pepper.
- While the eggs are frying, assembled your chilaquiles. In a shallow 1-quart dish, arrange half of the fried tortillas in a layer. Sprinkle them with half of the cheese. Pour enough of the hot enchilada sauce over the tortillas and cheese to cover most of the chips. Add the remaining chips to the dish in an even layer. Top with the remaining cheese and more sauce. The amount you add here is up to you. You may end up with some leftover enchilada sauce depending on your preference.
- Top with the fried eggs and salsa of your choice. Enjoy while it's nice and hot.
ANNE'S CHICKEN CHILAQUILES ROJAS
One of my favorite comfort foods from growing up in Tucson. It's great for a potluck or party and you'll get lots of compliments from your guests! This is a "roja" version but there is a "verde" style, too. Both are great and can be made hot or mild depending upon your heat tolerances or preferences. Serve with your favorite salsa, if desired.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a large (10x15-inch) casserole dish.
- Combine drained tomatoes and chipotle chiles in adobo in a blender and puree until smooth.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute onion in hot oil until brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Add garlic and saute 1 minute more. Add pureed tomato-chile sauce and simmer until mixture starts to thicken. Pour in chicken broth and stir in cumin, oregano, and salt; let simmer until mixture thickens. Remove from heat.
- Mix tortilla chips and tomato-chile sauce, folding carefully to cover chips completely. You may have to do this in 2 batches.
- Cover the bottom of the casserole dish with half of the chip/sauce mixture. Sprinkle a layer of Mexican cheese and cotija cheese over top. Add shredded chicken to cover all of the chips and cheese. Season chicken with salt and pepper, then sprinkle with 1/2 of the green onions and 1/2 of the cilantro. Spoon 3/4 of the sour cream evenly over top. Spread with the remaining tortilla mixture then top with remaining Mexican and cotija cheeses. Cover with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven until mixture is bubbly and cheese is melted, 35 to 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and let sit for 5 minutes. Serve with sour cream, green onions, and cilantro.

Tips:
- Use day-old corn tortillas for the best texture. Fresh tortillas tend to be too soft and can easily break apart.
- Cut the tortillas into small pieces, about 1-inch squares or triangles. This will help them crisp up evenly.
- Heat the oil over medium heat before adding the tortilla pieces. This will help prevent them from sticking to the pan.
- Stir the tortilla pieces frequently while they are frying. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from burning.
- Once the tortilla pieces are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the pan and drain them on paper towels.
- Top the chilaquiles with your favorite toppings, such as salsa, cheese, sour cream, and avocado.
- Serve the chilaquiles immediately, while they are still warm and crispy.
Conclusion:
Chilaquiles are a delicious and versatile Mexican dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are also a great way to use up leftover tortillas. With a few simple ingredients, you can easily make a batch of chilaquiles at home. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give chilaquiles a try. You won't be disappointed!
