Chilaquiles Casserole image

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 Onion
6 Garlic
3 tablespoons Tomato paste
8 Dried chiles (New Mexico or Gaujillo)
4 Ancho chiles
5 cups Chicken stock
2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
1 pound Chorizo
1 Hominy (13.5 oz can)
1 Tostadas (16) or Tortilla chips (10 oz)
8 Radishes
1/2 cup Sour Cream
1 Cilantro (cup)
2 Lime (1 tbsp juice)

Steps:

  • Sauce Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high. Cook onion and garlic, stirring often, until golden brown and tender, 8-10 minutes. Add tomato paste and cook, stirring constantly, until darkened, about 2 minutes. Add guajillo and ancho chiles and broth. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook, reducing heat as needed to keep at a simmer, until chiles are very tender, 30-40 minutes. Let cool slightly, then purée in a blender. Transfer to a large bowl, stir in vinegar, and season with salt.
  • Preheat oven to 375°. Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium-high. Cook sausage, breaking up with a spoon, until browned and nearly cooked through, 6-8 minutes. Add hominy and cook, stirring occasionally, until posole is beginning to crisp around the edges and chorizo is cooked through, about 4 minutes.
  • Spread about 1 cup sauce in an even layer across the bottom of a 3-qt. baking dish. Add a layer of tostadas, followed by another cup or so of sauce, 1 cup cheese, 2 Tbsp. onion, and one-quarter of chorizo. Repeat layering process until you've used remaining tostadas, sauce, cheese, onion, and chorizo. You should have 3-4 layers depending on your dish.
  • Bake until cheese is melted and sauce is bubbling around the edges, 30-40 minutes.
  • While casserole is baking, place radishes and cabbage in a large bowl, season with a couple of generous pinches of salt, and toss to combine. Let sit until vegetables are beginning to soften, about 5 minutes. Squeeze vegetables with your hands to expel excess water. Drain off as much liquid from vegetables as possible. Add vinegar and toss to coat; season with more salt to taste.
  • Mix sour cream and lime juice in a small bowl; season with salt. To serve, spoon dollops of lime sour cream over casserole and scatter cabbage slaw and cilantro on top.

These chilaquiles were just okay. The flavor was good, but the casserole was a bit dry. I think I would have preferred them if they had been made with a different type of bread.

I'm not a huge fan of chilaquiles, but I decided to try this recipe anyway. I was pleasantly surprised! The casserole was very flavorful and had a great texture. I would definitely recommend it to others.

This recipe was easy to follow and the chilaquiles casserole turned out great! I made a few minor changes, such as using a different type of cheese and adding some chopped cilantro, and it was delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

These chilaquiles were a hit at my brunch party! I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out perfectly. The casserole was cheesy, flavorful, and had just the right amount of spice. My guests raved about them and asked for the recipe.
