This recipe was given to me by Irene MacCombe- a play on a recipe she got when her husband was stationed in Japan-it was served over rice- but here she serves it over chips for an appetizer.

I'm not a huge fan of Thai food, but these nachos were actually really good. The sauce was flavorful and the wonton chips were crispy.

These nachos are a great way to use up leftover chicken or shrimp. I also added some chopped vegetables to make them even healthier.

These nachos were easy to make and so good! I used store-bought wonton chips to save time, and they worked perfectly.
