ingredients

Toppings

  • Fried eggs
  • Cotija cheese
  • Fresh cilantro
  • Black pepper

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Cut tortillas into 4 triangles each and arrange on a baking tray lined with parchment paper so they do not overlap or touch. Spray with avocado oil and bake for 12-14 min until golden and crispy. (Bake in batches if needed).

  • Step 2

    In a large bowl, mix together ingredients for pickled onions and set aside.

  • Step 3

    In a pan over medium-high heat, add all ingredients for the Chipotle Lime sauce and bring to a boil. Then, allow to simmer for 7-10 minutes until a thick sauce is formed.

  • Step 4

    Carefully remove baked tortilla chips from the oven and add to a bowl. Add Chipotle Lime sauce and gently toss so that the chips are coated.

  • Step 5

    Serve warm and top with pickled onions, a fried egg, cotija cheese, cilantro and black pepper.
