Speedy Chorizo Nachos

Nachos are always glorious, whichever toppings you throw on top so long as there is melted cheese; but if you're looking for a quick thrown together, fun lunch that is super simple, these nachos with a chorizo and tomato base will really hit the spot.

Speedy Chorizo Nachos

Here's how:

  • 1 pack tortilla chips
  • 100g cooking chorizo
  • 1/2 tin chopped tomatoes
  • 1 tbsp tomato puree
  • 1 tsp chipotle paste
  • 1 red jalapeno chilli
  • 50g Cheddar

To top once baked:
  • 2 tbsp sour cream or creme fraiche
  • 1/2 jar of jalapenos 
  • 2 tbsp jarred salsa
Firstly pre-heat the oven to 180 degrees. 

Roughly chop the cooking chorizo and add to a non-stick pan on a medium heat. 

Finely slice the red chilli and add to the pan. 

Once the chorizo is cooked on both sides, add the chopped tomatoes, tomato puree and chipotle paste, stir and cook for a few minutes.

In the meantime, grate the cheese and spread the tortilla chips out on a baking sheet.

Now spoon over the tomatoey chorizo sauce all over the tortillas and then scatter over the grated cheese. Place into the oven and bake for ten minutes or until the cheese is all melted.

Remove from the oven, and carefully move onto a plate, board or platter. 

Spoon over the salsa all over the nachos, then layer up with the sour cream, and finally scatter over the jalapenos and serve. Enjoy!
