Jollyrogers' Chilaquiles Recipe

Put chopped onion and sliced olives in separate small bowls and combine each with 1/4 cup of vinegar. Set aside to marinate. Meanwhile heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the chorizo breaking it apart into crumbles as it cooks about 10 minutes. Remove the chorizo from the skillet and set aside.

Heat 1/4 cup of oil in the skillet and add the tortilla pieces cooking and stirring over medium-low heat until just beginning to get crisp and golden at the edges about 10 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and drain the tortillas; pour 1 tablespoon of the oil into a saucepan.

Heat the saucepan over medium-low heat until hot but not smoking. Add the flour and cook and stir until smooth about 1 minute. Pour in the regular and hot tomato sauces water browned chorizo cocoa powder sugar 1 tablespoon of vinegar oregano and taco seasoning. Simmer the sauce about 5 minutes to blend the flavors. Stir in diced chiles and tortillas. Simmer about 10 minutes more stirring occasionally until tortillas have softened and the mixture is thick.

Drain the onion and olives. Spoon a layer of tortilla mixture evenly into a 2 quart baking dish or serving dish and follow with a layer of about 2 tablespoons marinated onion then a layer of 2 tablespoons olives followed by a layer of 1/4 cup cheese. Repeat layers twice more. Serve hot.
