There's something about sitting down at a Mexican restaurant with a basket full of warm tortilla chips and a bowl of fresh salsa in front of me that puts my will power to the test. Seriously - anyone else tell themselves they're only going to eat 1 chip only to realize 5 minutes later that the chip basket is empty? I have zero will power against the power of the chips and salsa. I feel exactly the same way about these Skillet Turkey Nachos. I set the hot cast iron skillet on the table and I could not step away from them. It's a good thing they're healthy-ish. Skillet Turkey Nachos 1 teaspoon oil 3/4 cup chopped red onion 2 Tablespoons minced jalapeno 1 1/2 Tablespoons flour 2 teaspoons cumin 2 teaspoons chili powder 2/3 cup beef stock 1/2 cup cooked ground turkey 1 cup drained pinto beans 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese 1/2 cup Mexican blend cheese 1/2 cup chopped tomato 1/2 cup chopped avocado baked tortilla chips
Sprinkle Mexican cheese over pan. Broil 1 minute. Sprinkle with remaining onion, tomato and avocado. Serve with chips. The original recipe for these nachos did not have any meat but I wanted to take these nachos from an appetizer to a meal so I added some ground turkey to my creation. I absolutely loved the way these turned out and setting the cast iron skillet in the middle of the table made a super fun, casual meal. We all really enjoyed these nachos and as an added bonus - the leftovers made an amazing baked potato topping. ;)
Ciao!
