Red Dead - Chilequiles

With news of Red Dead Redemption 2 in the works, it inspired me to create a really simple and delicious meal for one of the best games (I've played) ever.

You ready for a banging Mexican breakfast? Lemme introduce you to Red Dead - Chilequiles! Giving you a little bit of cowboy flair, south of the border!

This recipe is super easy to make and will for sure be a favorite for many any time of day.

YEEHAW!!


Level: Super Noob
Duration: 20 Minutes
Feeds: 1-2 People



The Goods:

-One package of flour tortillas
-Shredded Mexican Cheese
-1 small can "El Pato" hot sauce (yellow can is red hot, green can is salsa verde) you can use any kind
-2 eggs
-Sour Cream
-Olive Oil
-1 White Onion


Tutorial:

Take about half (or a little more) of the tortillas from the package and cut them lengthwise into strips, and crosswise into little chips.

Take about 2 Tablespoons of olive oil and pour into a pan. 

Turn the pan onto medium heat and place the tortilla strips into the pan and fry them until golden brown.

Remove chips and place them on a plate that is lined with a paper towel to soak up the oil.

Chop onion into cubes or strips, (you can use whole onion or half it doesn't matter) and place them in the pan, add a little drizzle of oil if needed.

Cook down the onions until soft and golden.

Add the Eggs and scramble lightly with the onions.
