this was excellent! we fried about a half a package of tortillas separately until golden brown and put them aside. Then I cooked chorizo separately and put that aside. Then sauteed tomatoes, onions, minced garlic and serrano peppers and then added the eggs until cooked through. Then, we layered everything on our plates, tortillas, chorizo, eggs, cojita cheese, and crema fresca, and topped everything off with red enchilada sauce (hot). This was soo delicious and totally authentic and the tortillas stayed crispy because we didn't cook them with anything else.

What a great recipe for shaking up the breakfast routine in our home. This was very good. That it was quick and easy to prepare with ingredients I always have on hand made it very appealing. My changes included reducing the chile peppers to just one because I was feeding teens, but they suggested amping it up a bit so I'll use 2 next time. I also added pico di gallo at the end to add additional moisture to the dish because this is how we remembered it being served in restaurants. Thank you VCMARTINEZ for sharing your wonderful recipe that made for a very yummy breakfast and will be made again and again in our home.

I love this! Minor changes: I used white corn tortillas (all I had) and roasted the serranos (I was in the middle of making salsa) and of course seeded those :). When it comes to latin food, I seem to squirt lemons all the time and use green pepper sauce. That's just me though. I will keep this for sure! Nice change of pace and maybe next time try it with chorizo. Thanks!

This was good. I used canned diced tomatoes instead of fresh. I didn't care much for the taste of the cooking oil. Maybe I will try lard next time. I used a Hatch chile pepper from my freezer. This seemed a bit bland though and needs some seasoning. I scrambled the egg, but I think I will try it over easy the next time. I liked the crunchy bits of corn tortilla best. Thanks, I enjoyed this breakfast.

Easier version. Use salsa verde. A Mexican salsa made with tomatillos. poor over chips and add fried egg on top. ususally served with a shredded white cheese and crema fresa. (or sour cream)

This was good! Needed a little seasoning was all! I halved the recipe and served them in flour tortillas with some hot sauce and we thought it was really good!

Good in its own way (& with salt & pepper added), but I really wanted it saucier - perhaps adding some red enchilada sauce would've satisfied. To reduce the very high cholesterol, I used 2 whole eggs & the rest were egg whites. By the way, folks, however crispy you get the corn tortilla pieces to be, they WILL become soggy again, as to be expected in chilaquiles.

Delicious! We used stale tortilla chips rather than frying tortillas, and added them right at the end just before the eggs were fully cooked. No cheese needed--this is tasty as is!
