Instructions
Starting the Chilaquiles
  1. Pour oil into skillet and cook onion and garlic, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and continue to cook, 2 minutes. Stir in zucchini and cook, 4 to 5 minutes more. Add corn and toss together. Remove half the mixture from skillet and set aside.
Making the Homemade Salsa
  1. Combine all ingredients in a bowl, using an immersion blender, pulse in 1 second bursts until all ingredients are finely chopped.
Combining the Ingredients
  1. Add salsa, diced tomatoes, and broth and stir together. Bring mixture to a boil and begin adding tortilla chips, a handful at a time, folding gently to coat every chip. Allow chips to soak up some liquid before adding more. Repeat until all chips have been added and evenly mixed.
  2. Add lime zest and juice, season with salt and pepper, and gently fold together. Lower heat to a steady simmer and cover pan until all liquid has been absorbed, 12 to 15 minutes. Finish chilaquiles by topping with remaining zucchini and corn mixture, queso fresco and cilantro.
To Serve
  1. Serve with lime wedges.
