Mexican Nachos Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Spread half the chips out in a large shallow casserole dish or on an ovenproof platter. Top with half the beans, in small spoonfuls, and scatter with half the chiles. Repeat with the remaining chips, beans, and chiles. Sprinkle the top of the nachos with the cheese. Bake until heated through and the cheese melts, about 3 to 5 minutes. Top the nachos with dollops of the sour cream and serve.
• Pour the oil into a large heavy-bottomed pot to a depth of about 2 inches. Place a deep-frying thermometer in the pot. Heat the oil over medium heat to 360 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, stack the tortillas, and cut the pile into sixths to make chips.
• Raise the heat to high. Working in batches, fry the chips, turning them with a skimmer or slotted spoon, until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the chips to a paper towel-lined pan to drain. (Return the oil to the proper temperature between batches.) Cool and season with salt. Serve.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Brush both sides of the tortillas with the oil. Stack the tortillas and cut the pile into sixths to make chips. Spread the chips out in a single layer on two large baking sheets and season with salt. Bake until golden brown and crisp, rotating the baking sheets once, about 12 to 15 minutes. Serve.
• In a small bowl, mash two-thirds of the beans with a fork or potato masher. Reserve the whole beans separately.
• In a medium skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat and add the onion. Cook until lightly browned, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring for 1 to 2 minutes more. Add the spices and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute more. Add the mashed beans and half the broth and cook, stirring frequently until thickened, about 5 minutes. Add the whole beans and the remaining broth and simmer about 4 to 5 minutes more until thickened but not pasty. Season with the salt and pepper, and stir in the fresh coriander, if desired. Serve.

Steps:

• Arrange a mixture of 2 varieties of corn chips on a very large platter or use your broiler pan as a platter.
• Combine salsa ingredients in a bowl and set aside for flavors to marry.
• Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add oil, garlic, onion and peppers to the pan and saute 2 minutes, then add meat and crumble with wooden spoon. Season meat with salt, chili powder, cumin and cayenne pepper sauce. Cook meat 5 minutes, then stir in beans and reduce heat to low.
• In a medium sauce pot, melt butter and add flour to it. Cook flour and butter 1 to 2 minutes over moderate heat, then whisk in milk. When milk comes to a bubble, stir in cheese with a wooden spoon. Remove cheese sauce from the heat.
• Pour cheese sauce evenly over the massive spread of chips and top evenly with beef and beans and the pico de gallo. UBER NACHOS! Serve immediately as is or, garnish with your choice of extra toppings from the toppings list.

Steps:

• In a 13 x 9-inch glass serving dish, spread the refried beans.
• Mix together the sour cream, mayonnaise and seasoning mix. Spread this on top of the beans.
• Put on a layer of the chopped green chiles (both cans). Note: You may substitute 8 ounces of chunky salsa for the chopped green chiles.
• Mix together the diced avocados, lemon juice, salt and garlic powder. Spread this on top of the green chiles.
• Mix together the shredded cheese, green onions, chopped tomatoes and chopped olives. Sprinkle this on top. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro.
• May be served right away, or cover and chill for up to 24 hours. -OR-, to serve hot:, bake at 350 degrees F until hot and bubbly, about 15 minutes.
• Serve with warm tortilla chips (we like Tortilla Scoops).
• TO MAKE NACHOS SUPREME:.
• Layer dip with tortilla chips and sliced carne asada steak, pollo asada, seasoned ground beef, or shredded chicken; top with extra shredded cheese and diced green chiles. Bake or microwave briefly until heated through and the cheese has melted. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Cook ground beef in large skillet on medium to high heat until well done.
• Layer cooked ground beef on the bottom of an 8 x 12 glass dish.
• On top of the ground beef, put on your salsa, and spread evenly.
• Pour tub of sour cream on top of the salsa, and spread evenly, you may need extra to obtain an even consistency, without being able to see the salsa underneath, this will make your spread look very messy. I normally use a tub and a half.
• Cut up the tomato, green pepper and green onion over the top.
• Add a desired amount of cheese over the top of the spread, make sure you don't add too much, remember, we're not melting the cheese.
