Cooking Steps

1
  • Zest, then juice one lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges.
  • Cut tomatoes into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • Halve, peel, then thinly slice shallots into 1/8-inch half-moons.
  • Roughly chop cilantro.
  • Combine guacamole, sour cream, 1/2 tsp lime zest, 2 tsp lime juice and 1/4 tsp sugar in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
2
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil, then beef and 1 1/2 tbsp Mexican Seasoning. Season with salt and pepper, then cook, breaking up beef into smaller pieces, until no pink remains, 4-5 min.** Set aside.
  • Meanwhile, add shallots, vinegar, 2 tbsp water and 2 tsp sugar to a small pot. Season with salt. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring often, until sugar dissolves, 1-2 min. Remove the pot from heat. Transfer shallots, including liquid, to a medium bowl. Place in the fridge to cool.



3
  • Arrange tortilla chips on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 1/2 tbsp oil, then season with remaining Mexican seasoning. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
  • Bake in the middle of the oven until warmed through, 2-3 min.
  • Sprinkle both cheeses over chips, then top with beef. Return chips to the middle of the oven and bake until cheese has melted, 2-3 min.


4
  • Remove nachos from the oven, then sprinkle tomatoes over top.
  • Dollop guac crema over top, then sprinkle nachos with pickled shallot and cilantro.
  • Squeeze lime wedge over top, if desired.
  • Serve nachos directly on the baking sheet.
