I had heard of chilaquiles but never tried them in Mexico. I found your recipe a while back and tried it and now it’s one of our favorites and in our regular breakfast/dinner rotation because it’s so delicious! My neighbours tried it one day and now they regularly ask me to make it for them as well! Thanks so much for posting this delicious recipe!

Incredible recipe! The sauce provides such a deep, complex flavor. Kate is so right that you need to have all all your ingredients prepped before you start cooking. This recipe will be one of our Mexican go-to recipes. Thank you, Kate!

Just made the chilaquiles sauce. Wow. I cook a lot of Mexican food, and tbh I usually make salsa roja starting with dried chiles. But I just wanted to do a little less work as I was also making a two-layer cake. Thought about using some goodish canned enchilada sauce, but then told myself to try the C&K recipe — I love this site! So I did, and it is terrific! Thank you!

Growing up mama would make chilaquiles rojo and I loved. She made her own salsita, usually the night before, with roasted tomatoes, jalapenos, fresh garlic, and onion blended and cooked for 20 minutes in a pot and then salt added after cooking to taste. I saw that you knew about the eggs, avocado, and cheese with the chilaquiles. Here’s another tip to take note of. My mama would serve them with either black beans or refried beans, crema media, raw thinly sliced onion rings, and a little chopped epazote on top. For me, the beans are very comforting and add another element of protein to the diet and epazote is traditional to the dish. I crave this a lot.

I can’t wait to try this. BTY, I am from southern New Mexico but live in New England now. For me, the best chili sauce is

Just finished making this recipe and served it with the Easy Refried Beans recipe from this site. What a lovely meal, the Mexican husband gave it a thumbs up, and he’s pretty picky- thank you, perfect directions and I wouldn’t change a thing!
