Homemade Nachos
The city's best homemade nachos in your own home. Crispy, salty, and "cheesy"! Mexican with a twist. "Luxury version" with pulled pork.
Equipment
- Oven
- Bowl
- Ovenproof dish
Ingredients
- Tortilla Chips I used a large bag
- 150 gram Pulled Pork cooked - can be substituted with chicken or other cooked meat
- 100 gram Mozzarella Chees grated
- 100 gram Cheddar cheese grated
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°C fan.
- Find a bowl.
- Put grated mozzarella and grated cheddar in the bowl.
- Mix it together.
- Take an ovenproof dish.
- Open the bag of tortilla chips. First, pour a third of the chips into the dish in one layer. We distribute the ingredients in 3 layers, so there is meat and cheese all the way through. Then distribute a third of your chosen meat on top of the chips.
- Finish with a third of the grated cheese.
- Repeat the process and add another layer of chips, meat, and cheese:
- And finish with a third layer of the remaining chips, meat, and cheese.
- Put the dish in the oven. Since the meat is pre-cooked, it's just about melting the cheese well. The time depends on your oven, but it takes about 15-20 minutes. Keep an eye on the cheese during the process.
- Take the finished nachos out of the oven.
- Serve immediately, for example with guacamole, salsa, and sour cream.
Notes
You can also easily use the pre-made chicken strips from the supermarket's refrigerated section - they actually taste pretty good!
If you use raw chicken, for example, chicken breast fillets, you can start by placing the whole breasts in the pan and cooking them - they should not be fully cooked, as they risk becoming dry after the trip in the oven. Let them remain slightly pink in the center. Then shred the breasts using two forks and distribute the strips over the chips before placing them in the oven.
If you want to add jalapeños or olives, or both, just include them in the layers before putting it in the oven.
