SPICY SHRIMP NACHOS

Spicy and sweet! The Jamaican Jerk seasoning really works here, bringing all the flavors together. What an amazing taste sensation! I ended up being so busy today that I had to use pre-cooked shrimp, but it was still fabulous! I submitted the recipe the way it was written in Better Homes and Gardens, but I ended up using more cheese as we didn't think 4 oz. was enough. I used twice that much, a full 8 oz and broiled them on a baking sheet. It took about 5 minutes on the second-to-the-top position in my oven. YUM!

SHRIMP NACHOS



Shrimp Nachos image

This is my most requested recipe to bring to get-togethers and there's always someone who hasn't had them who asks for the recipe. You can make it days ahead of time and have it out of the oven in just a few minutes when you need it. Add more chipotle peppers if you like it spicier. This recipe makes a lot, but it actually freezes well. I usually freeze half of it and have it another time. If you're making it for a party, though, bring it all because it will be gone!

Provided by Aaron McCargo Jr.

Time 33m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 jalapeno, seeded and minced
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup whole milk
4 cups coarsely grated pepper jack
1 teaspoon prepared mustard or whole-grain mustard
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cooked
1 cup your favorite barbecue sauce
8 cups tortilla chips (about 1 large bag)
1 cup chopped pickled jalapenos
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 cup sour cream or nonfat Greek yogurt

Steps:

  • For the sauce: In medium saucepan over medium heat, add the butter, garlic and jalapeno. Saute for 3 minutes, and then sprinkle in the flour. Cook, stirring frequently, until you create a blond roux, about 5 minutes. Add the milk, cheese and mustard and use a whisk to stir all together. Season with salt and pepper and let cook for 5 minutes on low.
  • For the nachos: Shred the chicken and place into a medium bowl. Pour in the barbecue sauce and mix well to combine. Arrange the tortilla chips on a platter and spread the chicken over the chips. Pour the warm cheese sauce over the top and sprinkle with the jalapenos and cilantro. Garnish with dollops of the sour cream.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh shrimp.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can cook the shrimp in a skillet over medium heat.
  • To make the guacamole, simply mash avocados with lime juice, cilantro, and salt.
  • If you don't have sour cream, you can use Greek yogurt instead.
  • To make the salsa, simply combine diced tomatoes, onions, cilantro, and jalapenos.
  • If you like your nachos extra spicy, add a few drops of hot sauce to the salsa.

Conclusion:

Spicy shrimp nachos are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They're perfect for parties, game days, or any other occasion. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for something tasty and satisfying, give spicy shrimp nachos a try!
