Transform leftover chicken into delicious salsa verde chilaquiles with baked eggs for a brunch makeover.
Ingredients:
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1.5 cups thinly sliced red onion
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
  • 2 (16 ounce) jars salsa verde
  • 1 pound shredded cooked skinless, boneless chicken breast
  • 1 (10 ounce) bag tortilla chips
  • 1 (2.25 ounce) can sliced black olives, drained
  • 0.25 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 8 eggs
  • 1 dash salt
  • 1 dash ground black pepper
  • 0.5 cup crumbled cotija cheese
  • 4 radishes, sliced, or to taste
  • 1 avocado, sliced, or to taste
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to a toasty 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté onion and jalapeno in oil until onion begins to brown, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl. Mix in salsa, chicken, chips, olives, and cilantro until well coated and slightly break the chips. Transfer mixture to a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Create 8 wells in the chip mixture using the bottom of a custard or measuring cup. Crack 1 egg into each well, then season evenly with salt and black pepper.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes until eggs are set and tortilla chips are crispy at the edges. Top with cotija cheese, radishes, and avocado before serving.
