CHICKEN NACHOS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Sprinkle the taco seasoning and chili powder all over the chicken breasts.
• Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and saute on both sides until browned, about 5 minutes per side, then remove from the skillet and set aside. To the skillet, add the tomato sauce, hot sauce and 2 cups hot water and bring to a gentle boil.
• Shred the chicken with 2 forks, then return the shredded chicken to the liquid and simmer on low until everything is hot and bubbly.
• Assemble the nachos in 2 ways: Sprinkle a layer of tortilla chips onto 2 ovenproof plates or baking dishes. Sprinkle both with cheese and then a layer of chicken; repeat twice more with each layer getting smaller in circumference. Finish with an extra sprinkling of cheese. Bake just until the cheese melts, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Serve one dish as is. On the other, layer on the jalapenos, black olives, tomatoes, green onions and sour cream.

CHICKEN NACHOS

Steps:

• Sprinkle both sides of the chicken breasts with the taco seasoning and chili powder. Rub in the seasonings as much as you can.
• Heat the olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken breasts on both sides until deep golden and totally done in the middle, about 4 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and let rest for a few minutes.
• In the same skillet, whisk in the tomato sauce, hot water, and several dashes of hot sauce and bring to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat to low and keep warm. Taste and adjust seasonings (you may need to add a little salt, depending on the taco seasoning you use).
• Shred the chicken using two forks, then transfer the shredded chicken to the sauce. Toss to coat it in the sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add a little more hot water and allow to simmer for a few minutes.
• To build the nachos, layer the chips, cheese, and shredded chicken on a dish in several layers, ending with a small layer on top. Microwave the dish (or place it in a 350 degree oven if ovenproof) until the cheese is totally melted.
• Serve as is or add whatever extras you'd like! Dive into it immediately.

• In a 12 inch skillet over medium heat, cook and stir the garlic and white parts of the green onions in canola oil until tender. Mix in shredded chicken, salt and pepper. Toss until well coated with oil. Stir in the salsa.
• Arrange tortilla chips on a large baking sheet. Spoon the chicken mixture over tortilla chips. Top with Cheddar/Monterey Jack cheese blend and tomato. Bake in the preheated oven 10 minutes, or until cheese has melted. Remove from heat and sprinkle with green onion tops before serving.

GUY-TALIAN NACHOS

Steps:

• Salsa:
• Combine all the ingredients in a nonreactive bowl. Set aside and allow the flavors to marry.
• Filling:
• In a medium-sized saute pan over medium-high heat, add half of the olive oil. Cook both the ground beef and turkey sausage until cooked through, then remove them from the pan to a plate. Add the remaining olive oil to the pan and saute the onion until it turns opaque, about 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook for 2 minutes longer while preventing it from burning. Return the meat mixture to the pan. Combine the ingredients well and set the filling aside.
• Toppings:
• Combine the ricotta cheese and sour cream in a small food processor or blender. Mix well and pour it into a resealable bag.
• Prepare the remaining toppings and hold until you are ready to assemble the nachos.
• Chips: In a heavy skillet, over medium heat, heat the oil to 350 degrees F. Carefully lower the wonton wrappers into the oil, in batches, since they cook extremely fast. As soon as they puff up, make sure you flip them over. Once they start to brown, remove them to a plate lined with a paper towel. Sprinkle them with salt as soon as they are out of the oil.
• Nachos:
• Preheat the oven to a low broil and position a rack approximately 9 inches below the burner.
• In a large oven-safe dish, arrange a layer of chips, a layer of meat mixture, (reheat if necessary), and sprinkle everything with some mozzarella. Repeat this action with the second half of the ingredients, and again finish with the cheese. Put the dish under the broiler until the cheese has melted, (keep a close eye on this). Remove the nachos from the oven and top with the salami, fresh herbs and salsa. Take the bag holding the ricotta/sour cream mixture, and create an instant pastry tip by cutting a hole in the corner of the bag. Drizzle the sauce over your nachos, sprinkle with the green onions and pepperoncini, if using, and serve immediately.

ITALIAN NACHOS

Steps:

• For the nachos: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place the baguette slices on a baking sheet fitted with a rack. Brush the slices with the olive oil. Toast until crisp on the outside but still slightly tender on the inside, 6 to 8 minutes.
• On an ovensafe platter or a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil or parchment paper, alternate layers of baguette slices, shredded Italian cheese blend, chopped cured meats, beans and pearl mozzarella, ending with a layer of shredded cheese. Bake until the shredded cheese is melted,10 to 12 minutes.
• For the salsa: While the nachos are baking, in a medium bowl, combine the tomatoes, basil, olive oil, balsamic vinegar and salt and pepper to taste. Toss to coat.
• For the crema: In a small bowl, whisk together the fig jam (or honey) and balsamic vinegar. Add the sour cream and salt and pepper to taste and whisk until completely blended. Transfer to a ziptop bag and store in the fridge until ready to use.
• For the toppings: Top the nachos with the giardiniera, pepperoncini, black olives and salsa. Slice the corner of the ziptop bag with the crema and drizzle it over the nachos. Finish with more chopped basil. Serve immediately.
