Chilaquiles
Oxmoor House
Before there were nachos, there were chilaquiles. Tomatoes and spices simmer with any kind of meat to make the ideal topping for tortilla chips. Here, chipotle, chicken, and cilantro meld in this filling Mexican favorite.
How to Make It
Step 1
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken to pan. Cook 3 minutes on each side or until browned.
Step 2
While chicken cooks, combine onion and next 9 ingredients (through green chiles) in a 5-quart electric slow cooker. Transfer chicken to slow cooker. Cover and cook on LOW for 4 hours.
Step 3
Remove chicken from slow cooker. Remove meat from bones; discard bones. Return meat to soup. Divide tortilla chips among 8 bowls. Ladle soup over tortilla chips; sprinkle with cheese.

3 1/2 stars. It is almost a chili but more brothy. Good flavors with the right amount of spice. We subbed shredded cheddar for the queso. Served with side salads and cubed ripe avocado. Left overs were great the next day too.

It might be pleasing to a lot of folks but this recipe is not even close to how chilaquiles are prepared. Not even close. For starters the tortilla chips are leftover tortillas or some specially dried, cut into triangles. The dried tortilla chips are then lightly toasted in very little oil, then in a larger pan the prepared salsa is gurgling. Join the tortilla chips into the salsa and cook until the tortillas have reconstituted and are just lightly chewy, not soggy or mushy ( although many do prefer them this way) and they certainly are not crunchy as the chips have absorbed the delicious salsa, serve hot with a dollop of sour cream. I'll leave the preparation of the salsa in which the tortilla chip cook, to the individual as there are so many ways of doing it.

Made this tonight and just used boneless, skinless chicken breasts because I didn't want to deal with the bones. I also didn't have chipotle in adobo, so I used some smoked paprika to give it that smoky taste. This is a fabulous recipe and will definitely make it again!
