Ground bison, a leaner and more flavorful choice than beef, updates the classic nacho recipe, and it's becoming widely available at well-stocked grocery stores. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon vegetable oil |
1/2 cup chopped onion |
1 pound ground bison or beef |
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
8 ounces corn tortilla chips |
1 cup fresh salsa verde, divided |
1 1/2 cups shredded monterey jack cheese, divided |
3 cups chopped romaine lettuce |
1 avocado, sliced |
1/2 cup diced tomatoes |
sour cream |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400°. In a large frying pan, heat oil over high heat. Cook onion, stirring often, until softened, about 4 minutes. Add bison and cook, stirring well to break up meat, until no longer pink, about 4 minutes. Season with pepper.
2. Meanwhile, lay half the tortilla chips evenly in the bottom of a shallow baking dish. Spread half of bison mixture over chips. Pour 1/3 cup salsa over the meat, followed by half the cheese. Repeat layers with 1/3 cup more salsa and remaining meat and cheese. Bake until cheese melts and chips start to brown, about 6 minutes.
3. Serve nachos with lettuce, avocado, tomatoes, remaining 1/3 cup salsa, and the sour cream.
