Thanks to The Table (and my affinity for all things Mexican food), chilaquiles has quickly soared up my “favorite breakfast foods” list. The crunchy chips, with avocado, a yummy sauce and a runny yolk are pretty much the best way to start the day as far as I’m concerned.
Sadly, it isn’t the healthiest breakfast option out there… BUT when I came across this version from The Bojon Gourmet that added kale to it, I instantly felt better (funny how that works right?).
- 10 6" corn tortillas cut into 1/6ths
- 1 16 oz jar red enchilada sauce
- 1/2 small yellow onion peeled and thinly sliced
- 1 bunch kale destemmed and torn into pieces
- 1 14 oz can black beans rinsed and drained
- 1/2 lb turkey chorizo
- 4-6 eggs
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese grated
- cilantro
- cotija
- lime wedges
- avocado slices
- sour cream or Greek yogurt
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Place tortilla triangles onto a foil lined baking sheet and toss with a heavy drizzle of olive oil. Sprinkle with Maldon sea salt and freshly ground pepper.
- Bake until crisp 10-15 minutes.
- Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and stir for 5 minutes (until tender).
- Add kale to onion mixture (along with a splash of water) and stir until wilted.
- In a separate skillet (preferably at the same time you are making your veggie mixture), cook your chorizo according to the package's directions.
- Once chips have had a minute or two to cool, transfer them to a large bowl and use your hands to toss them with enchilada sauce.
- Fold in kale/onion, black beans and chorizo.
- Oil a large baking dish and transfer chip mixture (along with any remaining sauce) and bake for 10 minutes or until chips have begun to crisp.
- Remove dish from oven and sprinkle with jack cheese.
- Gently make 4-6 divots in the chip mixture and carefully crack an egg inside each one.
- Return to the oven and bake until eggs have set (around 10 minutes).
- Garnish and/or serve with cilantro, sour cream, avocado, salsa, cotija, and lime wedges
Not only is it super tasty, but it was surprisingly easy to whip up – so no excuses on a lazy Sunday morning to not whip this guy up!
