4 (6") corn tortillas, divided
2 tablespoons neutral vegetable oil, such as grapeseed, plus more for brushing
1/4 cup canned refried beans
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more
1 teaspoon ground cumin, plus more for dusting
1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese (about 2.5 ounces)
1 small onion, chopped
2 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 (14-ounce) can diced tomatoes, preferably fire-roasted
1 teaspoon finely chopped canned chipotle chiles, plus 1 teaspoon adobo sauce
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut crosswise into 1/2"-thick strips, strips cut in half lengthwise if large
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (from about 1 1/2-2 limes), plus 1 lime, cut into wedges
Sliced avocado, sliced radish, and cilantro leaves with tender stems (for serving; optional)

Steps:

  • Arrange a rack in top third of oven; preheat to 425°F. Arrange 2 tortillas on a rimmed baking sheet and brush with oil. Bake 5 minutes, then flip and continue to bake until crispy, 4-5 minutes more. Carefully spread each tortilla with 2 Tbsp. refried beans; season lightly with salt and dust with cumin. Top with cheese. Return to oven and bake until cheese is melted and browned, about 5 minutes more. Transfer to a cutting board and let cool slightly. Cut each tortilla into 4 wedges to create nachos.

Add onion and tortilla pieces and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and remaining 1 tsp. cumin and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30-60 seconds. Immediately add broth, tomatoes, chiles and sauce, 1 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper. Cover pot, increase heat to high, and bring to a gentle simmer. Uncover, reduce heat to medium, and add chicken. Gently simmer over medium heat until chicken is cooked through, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove pot from heat. Stir in 2 Tbsp. lime juice. Season with adobo sauce, salt, or pepper, if needed. Ladle soup into bowls. Garnish with nachos, lime wedges, avocado, radish, and cilantro, if using. Season with pepper, if needed, and serve immediately.

BEEF AND BEAN LAYERED NACHOS



Beef and Bean Layered Nachos image

If you're going to do nachos for a big event, they'd better live up to the hype. And so we give you a platter of double-layered nachos that combine ground beef and black beans with heaps of tomato, cheese, scallions, olives and jalapenos. Whatever recipe or toppings you use to build your nacho platter, be sure to assemble them in layer of chips and toppings. This minimizes the number of naked tortilla chips left on the bottom of the plate. This recipe alsp includes a bath of guacamole. To save time, you could substitute purchased guacamole, or leave it out entirely and spoon salsa over the finished nachos.

BEAN DIP NACHOS



Bean Dip Nachos image

These are great as part of a Saturday or Sunday football game buffet. They go great with cold beer. Sometimes I even add ground beef after the bean dip, but before the cheese. And there are other times when we make these as a meal instead of just a snack.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 25m

Yield 1 tray of nachos

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 bag tortilla chips (round works best for these)
1 can Frito-Lay bean dip
shredded cheddar cheese (, REAL nachos use real cheese, not cheese sauce!)
jalapeno, sliced (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler.
  • Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil (makes clean-up easier, throw away the foil instead of scrubbing cheese off the cookie sheet).
  • Spread bean dip on each tortilla chip.
  • Place each chip onto the cookie sheet until the cookie sheet is full.
  • Cover the chips with shredded cheese and jalapeno slices.
  • Place under the broiler until cheese melts.

BEAN AND SWEET POTATO NACHOS



Bean and Sweet Potato Nachos image

A good twist on traditional nachos, these come from Linda McCartneys World Of Vegetarian Cooking. In fact, I did not make the sweet potato part, but I did make the rest of the recipe, and really loved the tomato/bean sauce. Omitting the sweet potatoes decreases cooking time by approx 60 minutes. I used only one whole green pepper, since I had no red pepper. I also made a spicy avocado guacamole, (see notes at end of recipe), and whipped some sour cream to accompany this, we loved it. Hope you enjoy them too!

Time 1h25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 lb sweet potato, peeled and diced

125 ml sour cream
1 fresh tomato, peeled and chopped

Steps:

  • In a large baking dish, mix the sweet potato, 2 tblsp of oil, cumin and coriander seeds, and bake, uncovered, at 180C/350F/gas mark 4, for 50-60 minutes until tender. (NB I did not make this part of the recipe)(If you also choose to omit this step, preheat the oven to 180C/350F/gas mark 4 now.).
  • Heat the remaining oil gently in a pan and add the onion, garlic, chilli and paprika.
  • Cover and cook until the onion is soft, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add the tomatoes with their juice, and the peppers, and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the beans.
  • Divide the corn chips between four individual ovenproof dishes, top with the bean mixture, then the sweet potato, and finish with the cheese.
  • Bake for 10 minutes until the nachos are well heated through, and the cheese has melted.
  • Serve sprinkled with coriander, with avocado and soured cream served separately.
  • NOTE: I made a simple guacamole with the avocado.
  • I mashed it with a tblsp lemon juice, then I added a chopped fresh tomato, a few drops of hot pepper sauce, and some ground salt and pepper.
  • I beat some lemon juice into a cup of cream.(I used more than recipe states, I like sour cream!).
  • I then served these separately, they were delicious with the nachos!

1 pound Mexican chorizo, removed from casings and crumbled
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
2 cups cooked pinto beans
1/2 teaspoon chili powder

PINTO BEAN NACHOS



Pinto Bean Nachos image

This is a simple vegetarian recipe from Cooking Light. I am including directions for making your own tortilla chips but you could certainly use store-bought. I love the homemade tortilla chips, though! You can make or use more tortilla chips if you would like more than 8 tortilla chips per serving - there is plently of bean mixture if you want to do that. These nachos are different because you aren't melting the cheese over the chips. This recipe utilizes crumbled queso fresco instead. I really love the flavor of the beans with the cumin, chili powder and garlic. You may substitute black beans for the pinto beans, if you prefer. Enjoy!

2 garlic cloves, minced
2 (15 ounce) cans pinto beans, undrained
1 cup crumbled queso fresco
1 cup salsa
1 cup avocado, peeled and diced
6 tablespoons cilantro, chopped

Steps:

  • Tortilla Chips:.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Arrange the tortilla wedges in a single layer on a large baking sheet.
  • Lightly coat the wedges with cooking spray.
  • Bake for 5-8 minutes (depending on your oven), or until crisp.
  • Repeat the procedure with the remaining tortilla wedges.
  • Nachos:.
  • Heat oil in a medium saucepan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add cumin, chili powder and garlic. Cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly.
  • Add undrained pinto beans and bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Partially mash the bean mixture with a potato masher until slightly thick.
  • Place 8 tortilla chips on each of 6 plates. Spoon about 1/2 cup bean mixture evenly over tortilla chips on each plate. Top each serving with about 2 1/2 tablespoons queso fresco, 2 1/2 tablespoons salsa and 2 1/2 tablespoons avocado. Sprinkle each serving with 1 tablespoon cilantro.

Tips:

  • Use quality ingredients: Fresh, ripe beans, crisp vegetables, and flavorful cheeses will make all the difference in the taste of your nachos.
  • Don't overcook the beans: They should be tender but still hold their shape.
  • Layer the nachos properly: Start with a layer of chips, then beans, cheese, and toppings. Repeat the layers until you have a few layers of nachos.
  • Bake the nachos until the cheese is melted and bubbly: This will help the nachos hold together and prevent them from becoming soggy.
  • Serve the nachos immediately: They are best enjoyed hot and fresh.
