Instructions

  1. 1
    Fry tortilla triangles in hot oil until golden brown, or roast in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for 10 minutes. Set aside.
  2. 2
    Tomato Salsa: Simmer tomatoes, chiles, onion, and garlic in a pot with a little water until soft (10 min). Blend smooth in a blender. Season with cumin, oregano, and salt.
  3. 3
    Melt cannabis butter and regular butter in a wide skillet — do not heat above 158°F (70°C).
  4. 4
    Pour salsa into the skillet, dilute with broth to soup consistency. Bring to a boil.
  5. 5
    Add tortilla chips to the hot salsa, toss quickly — 1-2 minutes. The chips should absorb the sauce but still have a slight bite. Don't leave them too long — they'll get mushy.
  6. 6
    Transfer immediately to plates. Top with Cotija cheese, crema, green onions, and avocado.
  7. 7
    Optional: Fried egg on top — classic Mexican style.

Pro Tips

  • Chilaquiles must be eaten right away — the chips soften quickly.
  • Stir cannabis butter into the salsa, don't fry it on high heat — butter burns easily.
  • Verdes instead of Rojos: Use tomatillos instead of tomatoes for the green version.
  • Leftover tortilla chips from the day before are perfect for chilaquiles — the older, the better.
