Beer Pairings

The creaminess of a Mexican light lager like Modelo Especial is perfect!

TK Table Talk:

Chilaquiles are most commonly eaten at breakfast time (not uncommonly as a hangover cure). Just sayin’.

What To Do:

1. Preheat Broiler

2. Make Tortilla Chips: Stack tortillas. Cut into quarters to create 24 triangles. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 3 tablespoons oil. When oil starts to shimmer, work in batches and fry tortillas until crisp, turning halfway through. Remove to paper towel-lined plate. Sprinkle with salt.

3. Layer Chilaquiles: Pour one-third of salsa in the bottom of skillet. Top with half of chips. Top with one-third of salsa; add remaining chips. Top with remaining salsa.

4. Season Shrimp: Toss shrimp with chili powder, garlic, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Arrange evenly over the chips and salsa.

5. Finish Chilaquiles: Place skillet under broiler and cook until shrimp are done, about 3-4 minutes (see Pro Tip).

6. Prep Toppings: Dice avocado, chop cilantro, and crumble feta cheese. Sprinkle over chilaquiles along with radishes.

To Serve: Spoon chilaquiles onto serving plates directly from the skillet.

Pro Tip:

The shrimp will be cooked once they turn pink. Don’t overcook them, or they will become rubbery.
