Method

1

Preheat a skillet or comal over medium-high heat. Roast the Tomatillos, Serrano Chiles, a halved White Onion and the Garlic (whole or smashed) until the tomatillos are blistered and the chiles and onion are charred in spots, about 8–10 minutes.

2

Transfer the hot roasted veggies to a blender, add a splash of Water to help blend, a handful of Cilantro Leaves, and a pinch of Salt; puree to a smooth but slightly textured salsa verde. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt if needed.

3

Cut the Corn Tortillas into wedges. In a large skillet, heat about 1/3 cup of Neutral Oil over medium-high heat and fry the tortilla wedges in batches until golden and crisp; transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle with a little Salt.

4

Pour most of the salsa into the large skillet and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Add the fried tortilla wedges and toss quickly to coat — simmer just long enough for the chips to soak flavor but still retain some crunch, about 1–2 minutes.

5

While the chilaquiles warm, heat a small amount of Neutral Oil in a separate nonstick pan and fry the Eggs to your liking (sunny-side up with set whites and runny yolks is traditional). Season the eggs with a pinch of Salt.

6

Plate the sauced tortillas, top each portion with a fried egg, then scatter crumbled Queso Fresco over the top and drizzle with Mexican Crema.

7

Finish with thinly sliced raw White Onion if you like extra bite, a sprinkle of chopped Cilantro, and a generous squeeze of Limes to brighten everything.

8

Serve immediately so the chips remain a delightful combination of crisp and saucy, and encourage diners to break the egg yolk into the warm chilaquiles for a rich, silky finish.
