Chilaquiles Breakfast Casserole Recipes

Steps:

• In a glass jar, combine rice wine vinegar, water, salt, and sugar. Microwave on high for 1 minute, then stir well to dissolve sugar and salt. Add red onion. Cover and let cool to room temperature.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Heat a 12-inch oven-proof nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add sausage and cook, breaking apart into bite-sized pieces with a wooden spoon, until browned all over and no longer pink, about 8 minutes.
• Add diced green chiles, taco sauce, water, and crunchy taco shell pieces. Stir well to combine. Remove skillet from heat.
• Make 6 wells, spaced evenly apart, in the tortilla mixture. Add 1 egg to each well. Top skillet with Cheddar cheese.
• Bake uncovered for 14 to 17 minutes, until whites around egg yolks are set. Serve immediately with toppings, as desired.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add tortilla squares; cook and stir until crispy, about 5 minutes.
• Whisk eggs, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Stir in Cheddar cheese.
• Pour egg and cheese mixture into the skillet; cook and until eggs are firm, about 5 minutes. Pour enchilada sauce on top.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray. In medium bowl, mix enchilada sauce, chiles, green onion whites and taco seasoning mix. Spread 1 cup of mixture in dish. Sprinkle with 1 cup of the Monterey Jack cheese. Top with chips.
• Drizzle with remaining sauce mixture. Sprinkle with remaining 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese. Cover with foil; bake 30 minutes.
• Remove foil; make 6 wells in chip mixture. Crack one egg into each well. Bake uncovered 15 to 20 minutes longer, or until egg yolks are set and whites are firm. Top with green onion greens, avocado and queso fresco cheese. Sprinkle with cilantro. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Grill the tomatoes, chiles, garlic and onions until they have a slightly blackened skin. Do not burn!
• Bring 6 cups water to a boil with the blackened veggies until they are cooked through and soft inside.
• Pour the veggies with the hot water and a little added cold water into a food processor and process. Don't blend too much, you want the mixture to be chunky.
• In a large pot, heat up the oil until smoking. Then (carefully!) add a small amount of the sauce mixture and let it burn away for 1 minute (this is for a nice smoky flavor). Then slowly add the rest of the mixture and season with salt and some chicken base.
• Add the tomato puree for color, and mix well. Add the shredded chicken and cook until it is heated through. Add the cilantro. Add the chips and serve immediately on 4 plates. Top each plate with some sour cream, sliced onions, queso fresco and a sprig of cilantro.
• Serve with guacamole, refried black beans and pico de gallo on the side.

Steps:

• Heat 1 inch of vegetable oil over medium heat in a cast-iron skillet until it registers 350 degrees F on a candy/frying thermometer. (If you don't have a thermometer, carefully dip the corner of a tortilla wedge into the oil. If it sizzles, you are ready to fry.)
• Carefully drop the tortilla quarters into the hot oil and fry, turning them halfway through with tongs or a spider, until crisp but not yet browned, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Remove the tortilla quarters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain; set aside.
• Heat the enchilada sauce in a small pan over medium-high heat until hot. While it is heating, fry the eggs. Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and fry until the edges are nice and crispy, a minute or two. Season with salt and pepper.
• While the eggs are frying, assembled your chilaquiles. In a shallow 1-quart dish, arrange half of the fried tortillas in a layer. Sprinkle them with half of the cheese. Pour enough of the hot enchilada sauce over the tortillas and cheese to cover most of the chips. Add the remaining chips to the dish in an even layer. Top with the remaining cheese and more sauce. The amount you add here is up to you. You may end up with some leftover enchilada sauce depending on your preference.
• Top with the fried eggs and salsa of your choice. Enjoy while it's nice and hot.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly coat a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
• Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in zucchini, beans, tomatoes, corn, cumin and salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are heated through, about 3 minutes.
• Scatter half the tortilla pieces in the baking dish. Top with about half the vegetable mixture, about half the enchilada sauce and half the cheese. Repeat with one more layer of tortillas, vegetables, sauce and cheese. Cover with foil.
• Bake the casserole for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking until the casserole is bubbling around the edges and the cheese is melted, about 10 minutes more.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. In a small bowl, combine salsa and sour cream. Arrange half the tortilla chips in a greased 13x9-in. baking pan. Layer with half the salsa mixture, all of the spinach, half the shredded cheese and half the bacon. Top with remaining tortilla chips, salsa mixture, shredded cheese and bacon., Bake, until dish is heated through and cheese is melted, 20-25 minutes. Meanwhile, heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Break eggs, 1 at a time, into pan; reduce heat to low. Cook until whites are set and yolks begin to thicken, turning once if desired., Top chilaquiles with cooked eggs, Cotija cheese, cilantro and, if desired, avocado.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Cook bacon in a large (12") cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until fat is rendered and bacon is beginning to crisp, 5-7 minutes. Add garlic and chile and continue to cook, stirring, until bacon is crisp and garlic is golden brown, 2-3 minutes more. Add beans, stir to combine, then stir in 2 cups salsa verde. Taste by dipping a tortilla chip into mixture; season with salt if needed.
• Transfer bean mixture to a large bowl (trying to add the chips to the skillet will make a mess, trust us). Gently stir in 8 cups chips with a rubber spatula until thoroughly coated without breaking chips. Return to hot skillet. Stick a handful of fresh chips vertically into mixture here and there-they will get extra crunchy as the chilaquiles bake. Sprinkle Monterey Jack and Cotija over. Make 8 evenly spaced indentations in filling and carefully crack an egg into each. Bake until egg whites are opaque and cheese is bubbly, 10-15 minutes.
• Top chilaquiles with cilantro. Serve with hot sauce, lime wedges, and more salsa verde alongside.

Steps:

• Mix together all ingredients until well blended.
• Pack into a baking dish and pop into the oven for about an hour.
