Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Quick and Easy Chilaquiles.
Step 1
In a large skillet, heat the corn oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the tortilla triangles and fry them until they start to turn golden brown and crisp, about 3 to 5 minutes.
Step 2
Pour in the chipotle salsa, reduce the heat to medium-low, and gently mix the tortillas with the salsa using a spatula. Allow it to cook for an additional 5 minutes.
Step 3
In a small bowl, beat the eggs with salt and ground black pepper. Pour the egg mixture over the tortillas and increase the heat to medium-high.
Step 4
Gently scramble the eggs with the tortillas until they are just set, being careful not to overcook them.
Step 5
Sprinkle the shredded pepper Jack cheese on top, cover the skillet, and turn off the heat. Let it sit for about 3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
