Stacked Breakfast Enchiladas... I think I'm in love.


 Think I have found my new favorite breakfast. :)

I seasoned some boneless, skinless chicken thighs with regular ole season all and threw them on the grill.
Cooked green onions in butter until tender and scrambled some eggs.




heated 6 flour tortillas.  (for 2 stacked enchiladas)



Then started building.
First one hot tortilla topped with scrambled eggs...




next some sliced grilled chicken....



A few hatch green chilies....



a sprinkle of queso fresco...



a second hot tortilla topped the same way, scrambled eggs, grilled chicken, chilies and cheese..







For the third and final layer I went with a hot tortilla, grilled chicken and cheese...





Then back into the grill until heated through and the cheese was nice and gooey..



I topped the enchilada with some green chili sauce given to me by relatives who picked it up in a restaurant in New Mexico..(Thank you again!)  I need to find out which town and which restaurant, it was really good stuff!!


Then I topped the whole thing off with an egg...



After eyeballing it for a minute, I knew there was no way I could eat the whole thing by myself...so I cut it in half.





It was soooo tasty....



I'll make this again for sure. Might be a good candidate for a campfire breakfast too.  :)

Looking good Jeanie. I'll best some sausage would kick that up a notch. I like the runny egg touch on top...

Thank you mmmgoblubbq!! That's a lot of meals for one weekend. Hope you have help! :)

Thanks Bill!!
For some reason I had chicken and eggs on my mind. I usually use sausage in breakfast burritos but went a different route this time. Probably cause I have eggs running out my ears right now. lol

Hope you're having a great afternoon. :)

Dang! Just be careful that stack doesn't fall over on you, it's huge! And it looks absolutely tasty. I thought my quesadilla last weekend was thick, it was a munchkin compared to this :)

Hope you have had a GREAT weekend. It was gorgeous here.

I need to quit reading these posts! Now I'm hungry and can't have what you just made, so I will be hungry and unfulfilled all day. (Do you feel guilty enough to run to Iowa and cook me up one? I didn't think so)

BREAKFAST! One of my favorite meals along with dinner, supper, lunch, brunch, evening snacks, and well you get the idea. ;)

That looks sooooo good, with the golden egg for a crowning touch. Thanks for sharing.

Spring and warmer weather are here, last weeks rain showers are gone. The grass is growing, the 'horns are getting fat 'n slick and all is well.
OK got to run,I'm off to build a stacked enchilada....;)

Have a good week.
