5 Star Vegas Nachos Recipes

Steps:

• Cook and stir ground beef in a skillet over medium heat until meat is crumbly and no longer pink, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain excess grease. Stir in taco seasoning mix and water and simmer until beef mixture has thickened, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Spread tortilla chips on the prepared baking sheet; top with Cheddar cheese and dot with refried beans and ground beef mixture.
• Broil in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, watching carefully to prevent burning, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Top nachos with salsa, sour cream, black olives, green onions, and jalapeno peppers.

Steps:

• Arrange a mixture of 2 varieties of corn chips on a very large platter or use your broiler pan as a platter.
• Combine salsa ingredients in a bowl and set aside for flavors to marry.
• Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add oil, garlic, onion and peppers to the pan and saute 2 minutes, then add meat and crumble with wooden spoon. Season meat with salt, chili powder, cumin and cayenne pepper sauce. Cook meat 5 minutes, then stir in beans and reduce heat to low.
• In a medium sauce pot, melt butter and add flour to it. Cook flour and butter 1 to 2 minutes over moderate heat, then whisk in milk. When milk comes to a bubble, stir in cheese with a wooden spoon. Remove cheese sauce from the heat.
• Pour cheese sauce evenly over the massive spread of chips and top evenly with beef and beans and the pico de gallo. UBER NACHOS! Serve immediately as is or, garnish with your choice of extra toppings from the toppings list.

Steps:

• Arrange the tortilla chips on a platter. Top with Nacho Meat, Pickled Onions, Cheese Sauce and Shishito Peppers. Drizzle with the Mexican crema and then garnish with the cubed avocado and cilantro leaves.
• Place the chorizo in a mini chop and blitz to break down.
• Add the olive oil, chorizo, chuck, onions, cumin, thyme and salt to a large pan over medium heat. All at once!
• Cook, stirring frequently, until browned and cooked through, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to the nachos.
• Combine the vinegar with 1/2 cup cold tap water in a medium bowl. Stir in the salt, sugar and hot sauce. Add the sliced onion and let sit for at least 1 hour. Pickled onions can be refrigerated for up to 1 month.
• Pour the evaporated milk in a medium saucepot and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Toss together the grated cheeses and cornstarch in a bowl until evenly coated. Add the cheese mixture and adobo to the simmering evaporated milk and whisk constantly for about 3 minutes, being careful not to scald or scorch the bottom of the pot. Cook, whisking occasionally, until homogeneous and thickened, about 10 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper. Reserve 1 1/2 cups cheese sauce in a heatproof measuring cup for nachos. (Leftover cheese sauce keeps, refrigerated in an airtight container, up to 1 week. Reheat gently with a splash of milk in a small pot over low heat.)
• Preheat a grill pan over high heat. Toss the peppers with a drizzle of olive oil in a small bowl. Add the peppers to the hot grill pan and grill, flipping occasionally, until the skin is blistered on all sides, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and chop, discarding stems. Season generously with salt and togarashi. Toss with sesame oil to taste.
