JALAPENO CHEESE CRISPS

Categories     appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 24 crisps

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 jalapenos, sliced into thin rounds
3/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
3/4 cup freshly grated pecorino cheese
3/4 cup freshly grated manchego cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with silicone baking mats or parchment paper.
  • Sprinkle the jalapeno slices around one of the prepared baking sheets in a single layer. Bake for 7 to 9 minutes; this will remove some of the moisture from the jalapeno and help ensure your cheese crisps live up to the crisp in their name. Transfer to a bowl.
  • Meanwhile, mix the cheeses together in a medium bowl.
  • Using a tablespoon measure, spoon mounds of the cheese mixture onto the lined baking sheets, 1 to 1 1/2 inches apart from each other. Press a jalapeno slice into the center of each mound. Bake until golden and crisp, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Allow the crisps to cool slightly before handling, then serve. Or let cool completely and store in an airtight container.

THE ORIGINAL NACHOS



The Original Nachos image

The first nachos were said to have been invented in Piedras Negras, Mexico, in 1940, with just three ingredients. As the story goes, a group of women walked into the Victory Club in Piedras outside business hours. Aiming to please, Ignacio Anaya, the maître d'hôtel known as Nacho, ran to the kitchen and made a quick appetizer with ingredients he found. Today's nachos know no end to their variations: They can have a number of seasoned layers, like these bricklayer-style nachos, or these vegetarian bean nachos, or simply be topped with cheese sauce, like those sold at concession stands. But the simplicity of its original, with its barely salted chips, nutty melted cheese and briny pickled jalapeños, is sure to charm true fans.

Time 10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

3/4 pound store-bought or Homemade Tortilla Chips (see recipe)
1 pound shredded Colby cheese (about 4 packed cups)
1 cup thinly sliced store-bought or homemade Pickled Jalapeños (see recipe), plus 2 to 4 tablespoons brine

Steps:

  • Set racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and heat to 400 degrees.
  • Spread the tortilla chips in a single layer on two large sheet pans. Place a scant tablespoon of shredded cheese over each chip, pressing slightly to adhere. Top each chip with 1 or 2 slices pickled jalapeño. Sprinkle or spoon the pickled jalapeño brine all over the chips. Bake until cheese melts completely and begins to lightly brown at the edges, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Serve nachos immediately, directly on the hot baking sheets, or use a spatula to transfer them to a platter.

Tips:

  • For a crispy chip, use fresh corn tortillas. If using store-bought chips, choose a sturdy variety that won't break easily when topped with cheese and jalapeños.
  • Use a sharp knife to thinly slice the jalapeños. This will help prevent them from overpowering the other flavors in the dish.
  • If you like spicy food, leave the seeds in the jalapeños. For a milder flavor, remove the seeds before slicing.
  • Use a generous amount of cheese. A good rule of thumb is to use about 1 cup of cheese per 12 chips.
  • Bake the chips until the cheese is melted and bubbly. This usually takes about 10-15 minutes.
  • Serve the chips immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Jalapeño cheese-topped chips are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or appetizer. They're perfect for parties, potlucks, or game day get-togethers.
