Baja Chicken Nachos:
Ingredients:
1/4 cup jalapenos, chopped
3 tomatoes, chopped
1 ? cups salsa (I prefer pace picante mild salsa)
1 can or tub cheddar cheese sauce
2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
1 bag mission tortilla rounds
prep:
spread layer of mission tortilla rounds on an ovenproof platter. Mix cheese sauce, jalapenos and chicken together, spoon evenly onto chips. Bake at 450 degrees for 3-5 minutes or until hot. Mix tomatoes and salsa together. Spoon mixture onto tortilla rounds and serve immediately.
An easy recipe:
Preheat oven to 350. Put tortilla chips on any baking pan. Sprinkle chips with shredded cheddar cheese. Spoon small amount of prepared taco meat onto the cheese. Put one more very thin layer of cheese over the meat and bake in over for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.
Good luck!
Those Baja Chicken Nachos would go perfect with homemade nachos. Just buy corn tortillas, cut them in 4 triangles, and fry them in vegetable oil, and then sprinkle a little bit of kosher salt on them.
Very very good, and just out of the pan :)
texas nacho
Tortilla chips - extra thick - 1 14-oz bag
Refried beans - 2-3 cups
Cheddar Cheese - 1/2 lb, grated, about 3 cups
Pickled jalapeno peppers - 4 peppers, sliced
Salsa
Guacamole
Sour cream
Cilantro, chopped
1 Preheat the oven to 350°F. Arrange a layer of tortilla chips along the bottom of a wide, shallow baking pan. It will make things easier if this baking pan also can be used as a serving pan, such as the ceramic platter shown in the photo above. The layer of tortilla chips can be a couple chips thick. Spread the refried beans over the chips (this is why you need extra thick chips, so they don't break when encountering the beans). Sprinkle the grated cheese over the top of chips and beans. Sprinkle slices of jalape?o peppers over the cheese. Bake in oven for 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted. 5 minutes in a convection oven.
2 Serve with dollops of salsa, sour cream and guacamole, with chopped cilantro sprinkled on top.
Serves 8. What is pictured above is a half-recipe.
