How to Make Huevos Y Chilaquiles Eggs With Tortillas

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Toss tortilla pieces with 1 tablespoon of oil and spread in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
  2. While tortillas bake, heat remaining oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in crushed tomatoes, chiles, chicken broth, cumin, oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes, or until sauce has thickened slightly.
  4. Reduce heat to low. Gently stir in the crispy tortilla chips, ensuring they are well coated in the sauce.
  5. Create wells in the sauce and carefully crack eggs into the wells. Cover the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until eggs are cooked to your liking.
  6. Serve immediately, garnished with crumbled cheese and fresh cilantro.
