Frito Pie Nachos

By Executive Chef Andrew Hunter

Ingredients

2 8-ounce packages shredded cheddar or Mexican cheese blend

1 9 ¼ ounce bag Frito “Corn Chips” Scoops

1 12-ounce package Niman Ranch shredded beef or pork with or without sauce

½ diced red onion

1 8-ounce container sour cream

1 8-ounce container Pico de Gallo

1 bunch cilantro

Cooking Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. In a large (9”) cast iron skillet*, sprinkle enough shredded cheese to cover the bottom of the skillet. Empty about half the bag of corn chips on the cheese and then sprinkle on another generous layer of shredded cheese. Cover skillet with foil and bake in the oven until cheese is melted, about 12 minutes.
  3. The Niman Ranch Pork/Shredded Beef package gives you a few choices for heating up the meat. Choose your method and coordinate the heating so the meat and nachos are hot at the same time. Take the skillet out of the oven and dot generous spoonful's of hot shredded beef across the melted cheese.
  4. Garnish with sour cream, pico de gallo, chopped red onion and cilantro, or fill small bowls with the toppings and arrange around the hot skillet for your family to customize their own.

*If you don’t have a cast iron skillet, use any oven-proof skillet or baking pan you have.
