How to make delicious chicharron nachos
- Preheat your oven to 190°C

- Sprinkle your grated cheeses evenly over the chicharrónes
- Add black beans, jalapeño slices, and chopped red onion

- Remove from oven and top with cherry tomatoes, diced avocado, a drizzle of sour cream, and your chopped coriander
- Add the hot sauce and squeeze lime over it if desired
Top tip to keep things crunchy
No one wants soggy nachos, so it’s best to add the wet toppings (your avocado and tomatoes) after baking to keep the textures just right. Plus, your nachos will taste so much fresher with the cool avocado contrast against the hot, savoury flavours.
This dish pairs well with cold beer, wine, or tequila shots! Buen provecho!
