Easy Beef Chilaquiles Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add tortilla pieces to oil and fry until crisp, about 5 minutes.
• Pour beaten eggs over the tortilla pieces in the skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until eggs have set, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat. Top with taco sauce and Monterey Jack cheese.

Steps:

• Reserve 2 Tbsp. cilantro; place remaining cilantro in blender. Add tomatoes, dressing, chiles and half the onions; blend until smooth.
• Brown meat in large nonstick skillet; drain, reserving meat in skillet. Stir in tostada pieces and tomato mixture; cook on medium-low heat 8 min., stirring occasionally. Top with cheese; cover. Cook on low heat 3 min. or until melted.
• Serve topped with sour cream, remaining onions, avocados and reserved cilantro.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. In a large skillet, cook beef and chorizo with onion and garlic over medium heat until beef is no longer pink, 5-7 minutes, crumble meat; drain. Stir in both cans of tomatoes; bring to a boil. In a greased 1-1/2-qt. or 8-in.-square baking dish, layer 2 cups chips, half of the meat mixture and 1/2 cup cheese; repeat layers., Bake, uncovered, until cheese is melted, 12-15 minutes. Sprinkle with cilantro. If desired, serve with toppings.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and pan-fry tortilla triangles until they are just starting to turn golden brown and crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. Add salsa, reduce heat to medium-low, and carefully mix tortillas and salsa with a spatula. Cook for 5 minutes.
• Beat eggs, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Add eggs to tortillas and increase heat to medium-high. Scramble eggs gently until just set. Top with pepper Jack cheese, cover, and turn off the heat. Let sit for 3 minutes until cheese is melted.

Steps:

• Remove the chorizo from its casing by splitting 1 end and squeezing out the meat. In a large heavy-bottomed high-sided saute pan, fry the chorizo in the oil until it is grainy but still soft, about 4 minutes, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon to break up the meat and prevent a crust from forming on the bottom of the pan. Set aside and keep hot.
• In a large stockpot over medium-high heat, stir the salsa with a wooden spoon until hot and sputtering. Add half the tortilla chips and stir to coat with the salsa, then cook until beginning to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the rest of the tortilla chips, stir to coat with the salsa, and cook until beginning to soften, about 3 to 5 additional minutes. There should be a nice mix of very soft and still slightly crunchy chips when the chiliqueles are finished. Remove from the heat and use a slotted spoon or tongs to heap generous portions into each of 4 bowls. While still piping hot, top with the grated Cheddar and Montery Jack cheeses, chorizo, a dollop of sour cream, and a sprinkling of red onion and cilantro. Serve hot with Guacamole on the side.
• In a medium stock pot, place the tomatoes, onion, jalapeno, and garlic and cover with 2 quarts water. Bring to a boil over high heat and let cook 5 to 8 minutes, until the vegetables are very soft. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a blender and puree until smooth with the cilantro and salt. If the salsa is too thick (it should have the consistency of a very thick soup), add a little of the cooking liquid. Check seasoning and add additional salt, if necessary, and pepper, to taste.
• In a large high-sided saute pan over medium heat, bring the oil to 350 degrees F. Fry the chips in small batches until crisp and lightly golden, about 2 to 3 minutes. (They will continue to darken while resting.) With tongs or a metal frying ladle, transfer the chips to a large bowl lined with paper towels. Season with the salt and paprika while still warm. Repeat with the remaining chips.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place corn tortilla pieces on the prepared baking sheet and spray with cooking spray.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crispy, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Combine tortillas and tomatillo sauce in a skillet over medium heat and simmer until tortillas have softened, about 5 minutes. Spoon mixture into individual ramekins. Top with queso fresco, crema, and sliced onions. Garnish with cilantro.
