Step 1
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1.5 cups salsa and cook until bubbling, about 2 minutes.

Stir in 4 cups tortilla chips, coating them with salsa. Cook for 2-3 minutes until chips are slightly softened but still crunchy.
Step 3
In a separate nonstick skillet, fry 2 eggs over medium heat until whites are set and yolks are runny, about 3 minutes.
Step 4
Divide the chilaquiles between two plates. Top each with a fried egg, 1/4 cup shredded cheese, and sliced green onions. Serve immediately.
