I had never even heard of chiliquilles until I was an adult. I was in Cabo with my family and needed to whip up a quick breakfast. I saw tortilla chips, and some green salsa. Breakfast has to have eggs... so my own version of chiliquilles erupted. I mean it was a hit with some pretty picky eaters. I have not changed the recipe much since Cabo, why change a good thing?
Chiliquilles
1 bag of any clean tortilla chips (meaning no cheese Doritos)
1 cup of water
green salsa (can or jar- not picky)
2 eggs
Shredded parmesan (optional)
Sour cream (optional)
Heat up a pan, preferably a frying pan. Add one handful of chips at a time, depending on how hungry you are! Add a few T water and watch it steam. You want the chips soft, but not "mushy". Next scramble the eggs in a small bowl and toss in. Once cooked, add a smattering of green salsa and mix in. Plate up your chiliquilles, sprinkle some parmesan on top, and maybe a dollop of sour cream!
No salt needed, it is most likely on your chips! Ole!
I remember when you made this in Cabo!
