Kick Ass Nachos Using Leftover Chilli Con Carne or Chicken

Recipe #400328 | 12 min | 10 min prep

To the untrained eye this doesn't look much cop but it's such a good dish you just gotta try it! The jalapeños are essential as is the sour cream and guacamole. I've given the beef version below but I also like using shredded chicken, onions and garlic, with black pepper and cayenne instead of the chilli con carne. A complete meal in itself and damn fine one at that.

SERVES 1 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Per Person

  • 100 g tortilla chips (approx)
  • 8 slices pickled jalapeno peppers (approx)
  • 8 tablespoons leftover  chili, con carne heated through (approx)
  • 6 tablespoons salsa, heated through (can use pasta sauce)
  • 80 g grated cheese (approx)

To serve

  • 4 tablespoons guacamole (approx)
  • 2 tablespoons sour cream (approx)

Directions

  1. 1
    Assemble the Nachos on individual plates. Try to distribute the ingredients evenly, in little pockets, throughout the nachos including the cheese but reserving some to sprinkle on top.
  2. 2
    Microwave for 2 minutes making sure the cheese is melted and top with guacamole and sour cream.
  3. 3
    Eat with your hands and get really messy. Fantastic!
