Chilaquiles Verdes and the Key to Stress-Free House Hunting
Inspired by a recent trip to Mexico, these Chilaquiles Verdes make for an easy and delicious dinner! Top ‘em with a fried egg, and you’ll be saying, “Gracias, Liz!”. Plus, I’m sharing what I believe is the KEY to stress-free house hunting (and here’s a hint: it has to do with the theme I’ve been sharing all month long — being organized!). 😉 So stick around!
Watch this month’s From My Kitchen and then let me know, have you ever tried Chilaquiles Verdes? What do you like to top them with?
Ingredients:
1 pound tomatillos, husked and rinsed (about 10 med-large tomatillos)
3 jalapeño peppers stemmed and seeded
½ medium white onion water, as needed
½ cup cilantro
2 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon lime juice (about ½ lime)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
12 corn tortillas
4 tablespoons vegetable oil, for frying
Here’s How to Do It:
For the Salsa Verde:
In a medium pot, add the tomatillos, jalapeños, onion, and enough water to completely cover them. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the tomatillos, jalapeños, and onion to a blender. Add the cilantro, garlic, lime juice, and salt and blend until smooth. Taste and add more salt as needed.
For the Corn Tortillas:
Stack the corn tortillas on top of each other and cut them into quarters to create small triangle wedges. Line a large plate with paper towels and set aside.Spread them in a single layer on two greased baking sheets and lightly spray the tops with nonstick cooking spray or brush with olive oil. Bake at 400°F for 10 to 15 minutes until crispy. Add all of the fried tortillas back to the pan and pour the salsa verde on top. Gently toss together to coat. Serve immediately and garnish with cotija cheese, cilantro, onions, and Mexican crema.
The Key to Stress-Free House Hunting
To help alleviate you stress in the home-buying process, set house-hunting goals! Decide what is important to you, and organize your basic requirements, such as the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, yard space, desired neighborhoods, school districts, and any other factors that will influence your final decision. Organization is key to keeping the process stress-free!
