Ingredients
- 4 green jalapenos
- 1 pound tomatillos
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups olive oil
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 4 epazote leaves
- 10 corn tortillas
- 2 ounces sour cream
- 1 chicken breast, boiled and shredded
- 2 ounces queso fresco Mexican cheese, crumbled
- 1/2 white onion, sliced
- 1 avocado, sliced
- eggs
- refried beans

Instructions
- Sauce preparation: Fill a medium saucepan halfway with water and boil the jalapenos over high heat for 15 minutes. Add the tomatillos and let them boil for another 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, drain and add cold water. Set aside to cool down for 15 minutes. Then drain and pour into a blender filled with 2 cups water. Add the garlic and salt and blend for about 3 minutes. Strain.
- In a medium saucepan over low heat, add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and heat for 2 minutes. Then add the blended ingredients, chicken broth and epazote leaves. Then boil for 15 minutes.
- Tortilla preparation: Heat the remaining olive oil in a frying pan over low heat. Cut the tortillas in 4 equal pieces and lightly fry them until golden. Add the tortillas to the sauce while boiling for 10 minutes. Stir until cooked through.
- Directions to assemble: Place the tortillas on a plate (5 tortillas each plate). Layer each serving with half the sour cream, shredded chicken, queso fresco, onions and avocados. Serve with 2 eggs any style, refried beans and/or steak.
Reviews
Yummy green chilaquiles. Changed a few items on the recepie due to not having the ingredients. Such as using serrano chile instead of jalapeños. However, the rest of the recepie followed it completely. Loved the chilaquiles will be making them again soon.
