Chilaquiles is a Mexican breakfast specialty, which is known for curing hangovers and bringing a smile to almost any guy’s face. It’s inexpensive, easy, and a totally yummy comfort food that is completely addictive once you start chowing down! So push the stack of pancakes aside this year (I find pancakes so stressful to cook on that griddle anyway) and cook up this one-pan dish that the whole family can enjoy!
In a large frying pan, heat the Vegetable Oil over medium heat. Sauté the onion until golden (approximately five minutes) and add the eggs and the tortilla strips to the pan, stirring continuously until eggs are firm (approximately 5 minutes).
Add the enchilada sauce and the water to the pan and turn the heat up to medium-high.
Add the green chilis and simmer until the sauce thickens (approximately 5-7 minutes).
Top with the cheese, and turn the heat down a bit, folding the cheese into the eggs until melted.
Top with cilantro, serve hot, and enjoy!
