Mexico: One Plate at a Time

S12E02 Chilaquiles, Comforting and Classic

Chilaquiles aren't solely for curing hangovers; they’re a beloved staple across Mexico City, featured in spots from the upscale El Cardenal to the trendy Chilakillers. Making them at home is simple, too. Rick’s recipe, infused with zesty tomatillo sauce, is bound to become your go-to dish for any occasion. In Chicago, the classic chilaquiles receive a refined twist with crispy fried butternut squash and a rich, earthy pasilla chile sauce, elevating the traditional flavors to new heights.
