Preparation

1
In a medium pot, combine the tomatillos, jalapeños, quartered onion, and enough water to completely cover them. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 8 minutes.
2
Using a slotted spoon, carefully transfer the tomatillos, jalapeños, and onion to a blender. Add the fresh cilantro leaves, garlic, lime juice, and salt. Blend until you have a smooth salsa verde. Taste and adjust the salt as needed.
3
Stack the Maria and Ricardo´s Organic Yellow corn tortillas on top of each other and cut them into small triangle wedges. Line a large plate with paper towels and set it aside.
4
In a large sauté pan or skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add half of the tortilla wedges and fry for about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they become crispy. Transfer the fried tortillas to the lined plate to drain. Repeat the frying process with the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil and the remaining tortilla wedges.
5
Once all the tortillas are fried and crispy, return them to the pan.
6
Pour the prepared salsa verde over the crispy tortillas. Gently toss everything together to evenly coat the tortillas with the salsa verde.
7
Serve the green chilaquiles immediately, garnished with crumbled Cotija cheese, fresh cilantro leaves, sliced onions, and a drizzle of Mexican crema.
8
Enjoy this delicious and authentic green chilaquiles dish!
