Chilaquiles Verdes

12 corn tortillas

cooking oil spray

onion,

garlic

jalapeño pepper, seeded

lime juice

cilantro

salsa verde (green Mexican sauce), homemade or store-bought

vegetable oil

salt (or

sour cream or lime crema

Cotija cheese, crumbled

red onion, diced

avocado, diced

cilantro,

Stack the corn tortillas (4 pieces at a time) on top of each other and evenly cut them into eighths. Each tortilla will turn into 8 small triangle wedges.

To crisp them up, lightly spray both sides of the tortillas with cooking spray oil and place them in a single layer on two large baking sheets.

Bake until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Set aside.

Bake the tortilla chips:

In a blender, add onion, garlic, jalapeño, lime juice, cilantro, and salsa verde. Blend until smooth, about 1 minute.

In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat until hot and sizzling, about 1 minute. Slowly pour in the sauce mixture and stir well. Bring it to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let the sauce simmer for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add salt to taste. Turn off the heat and set aside.

Make the sauce:

Add the baked tortilla chips on top of the sauce and toss well to coat.

Add your favorite toppings including a drizzle or dollops of sour cream, cotija cheese, onion, avocado, and cilantro. Serve immediately.
