Chilaquiles is a dish made with crisped corn tortillas that are simmered in a savory tomato sauce. This chicken version uses fresh tomatoes and lots of chiles; the finished dish is then topped with a dollop of sour cream for richness. Jalapeño chiles are hotter than serrano chiles, so consider your comfort level with spicy foods and make this dish with jalapeños, or use just two serranos, if your taste leans toward the milder side.
