Our Chilaquiles with Salsa Roja recipe is one classic Mexican dish. The crunchy fried tortilla absorbs the unique flavor of the smoky sauce made with dry chiles and gives a great texture to this dish. The final touch, our fresh crumbling Queso Fresco, and Supremo® Brand Mexican Crema.

6 Steps to complete

    Transfer boiled vegetables to a blender. Add cilantro, salt, pepper and ½ cup of the cooking water. Puree for 1 minute; be sure to hold down the lid with a kitchen towel for safety. Blend for 1 to 2 minutes or to desired consistency. Set aside until needed.
