Ingredients & Directions

Directions

Chicken

2 tablespoons
sesame oil
4
garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon
brown sugar
2 tablespoons
liquid aminos
1/4 teaspoon
ground ginger
1 lb
  1. Add the ingredients for the chicken to a large skillet.
  2. Break apart the meat and sauté until browned and slightly crispy, about 10 - 15 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, whisk together all ingredients for the Sriracha drizzle and set aside in the refrigerator until you’re ready to serve.
  4. Preheat oven to 400°F. Layer half the tortilla chips, cheese, and kimchi.
  5. Repeat a second layer. Bake for 5 minutes, or until cheese has melted.
  6. Top with cilantro, sesame seeds, red pepper flakes, and the sriracha drizzle.

 

 

Sriracha Drizzle

2 teaspoons
sriracha
2 teaspoons
mayonnaise
1 teaspoon
lime juice

Tips For Making Nachos:

  • DRAIN THE KIMCHI: This will help prevent soggy tortilla chips.
  • LAYER THE INGREDIENTS: Start with half the chips, cheese, kimchi, ground chicken… then repeat. By creating a double-layering process, you will avoid “under-dressed” tortilla chips at the bottom of the sheet pan.
  • DON’T SKIMP ON THE CHEESE: These are nachos… they need the cheese to pull everything together! Sometimes she does a mix of two cheeses, Monterey Jack and sharp cheddar are her favorites.

To Assemble Nachos

4 cups
tortilla chips
8 oz
Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
1 cup
kimchi, drained well
fresh cilantro, as desired
1 tablespoon
white sesame seeds
1 tablespoon
red pepper flakes, optional
