I always wanted to make this recipe but could never get it right—until now! This is one of my favorite sauces for chilaquiles because of its flavor, creaminess, and style. It takes about 40 minutes to make.

Steps

1 hour
  1. 1

    Cook the chicken breast to make the broth. I like to add 1/4 onion, 1 clove of garlic, bay leaves, and a pinch of oregano, but you can add whatever you like.

    Cut the tomatoes in half and add them to the pot. Stir constantly, and when they start to release their juices, cover the pot.

  10. 10

    Cut the tortillas into small triangles and fry them in a skillet with oil over low heat. Alternatively, use a bag of tortilla chips to make it easier.

  11. 11

    Toss the tortilla chips with the sauce in a bowl until they are fully coated, then serve on a plate.

    Shred the chicken and add it to the plate along with queso fresco, crema, chopped onion, avocado, and any other toppings you like. Enjoy!
