Baked Green Chile Chilaquiles

October 22, 2013

Have you ever had chilaquiles before? I had not and this recipe sold me on them for life. Traditionally, chilaquiles are fried strips of corn tortillas (in this case I used tortilla chips) with green or red salsa or mole poured over top. The whole thing is topped with a fried egg, beans, avocado, queso fresco or sour cream (to name a few options). This one uses salsa verde and black beans. I served it for dinner but chilaquiles are traditionally a brunch item and I think it would be delicio

1 T. extra virgin olive oil
2 poblano peppers, cut in thin strips
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 c. salsa verde (I used Herdez)
1/3 c. fresh cilantro, chopped
1 t. salt
6 oz. corn tortilla chips
8 oz. shredded Monterey jack cheese
1 (15 oz.) can black beans
1 avocado, sliced
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1 lime, cut into wedges

Preheat the oven to 400. In a large skillet heat the olive oil over medium high heat and add the poblanos. Cook until they begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Stir...
