1

Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the tortillas into triangles and lay them out on a baking sheet. Drizzle with oil and sprinkle with salt. Bake for about 10 minutes until they are crisp and golden, turning them halfway through.

2

While the tortillas are baking, prepare the sauce. In a saucepan, combine the tomatillos, jalapeño, garlic, and onion. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 10 minutes until the tomatillos are soft.

3

Remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool slightly. Once cooled, blend the mixture until smooth and then return it to the saucepan. Pour in the chicken broth, adding salt and pepper to taste. Cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes.

4

Once the tortillas are crisp, add them to the tomatillo sauce, making sure to stir gently so that each piece is coated. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes in the sauce, allowing the tortillas to soften slightly.

To serve, place a generous portion of chilaquiles on a plate. Top with crumbled queso fresco, a dollop of sour cream, and freshly chopped cilantro.
