Method
 

To prepare the sauce
  1. Place the ingredients in a saucepan with 1 cup of water and boil for 20 minutes.
  2. Blend ingredients. When ready, blend. Using a strainer, strain the sauce and pour into a saucepan, season with salt and a chicken cube. The sauce should be hot.

  1. Cut the tortillas into triangles, place them on a tray and let them dry or bake for a few minutes.
  2. Fry the tortillas in a frying pan or deep fryer until golden brown.
  3. Remove excess oil using paper towels and place in a container.
  4. Bathe with sauce. Place a bed of fried chips, add the chicken, onion and bathe with the hot red sauce. Add the Mexican cream and cheese.
To prepare the eggs
  1. Fry the eggs in a skillet. Cook it until the yolk reaches a minimum consistency.
  2. Serve by placing the egg on the chilaquiles. This dish should be served right at this moment so that the chips are enjoyed with a certain degree of crispiness, or else you'll end up with something that's simply too soggy and less than festive.
