Baked Chilaquiles
These easy baked chicken chilaquiles are my take on a traditional Mexican breakfast dish. They're loaded with all the classic chilaquiles flavors and made with just a few simple ingredients. This 30-minute breakfast or brunch is made with corn tortilla chips smothered in enchilada sauce and layered with shredded chicken, scrambled eggs, cheese, and more.
