CHEEKY CHICKY
Place a pan (with a lid) over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel. When hot, fry the chicken on one side until golden, 2-4 minutes. Flip, cover with the lid, and fry until cooked through, 2-4 minutes. During the final 1-2 minutes, baste the chicken with a knob of butter and ½ the NOMU spice blend. Season, remove from the pan and rest for 5 minutes. Using a fork, shred the cooked chicken and set aside.
PREP STEP
Peel and roughly slice ½ the onion. Drain and rinse the black beans. Drain and roughly chop the jalapeños. Rinse, pick, and roughly chop the coriander. Set everything aside.
CHARRED CORN
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the corn until lightly charred, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
NACHO FILLING
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the sliced onion until golden, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the cooked chopped tomato, the drained black beans, the remaining NOMU spice blend, and 40ml of water. Simmer until slightly thickened, 4-5 minutes (stirring occasionally). Add a sweetener and seasoning. Remove from the heat.
ASSEMBLE THE NACHOS
Spread out the nachos on a roasting tray. Evenly spoon over the nacho filling, top with the charred corn, lay over the shredded chicken, and scatter over the grated cheese. Bake in the hot oven until the cheese has melted, 6-8 minutes.
WHILE THE NACHOS ARE BAKING…
In a bowl, combine the guacamole with the lemon juice (to taste), ½ the picked coriander, and seasoning.
CHEESY FEAST
Eat the cheesy chicken nachos right out of the tray, or dish them up on a plate. Scatter over the chopped jalapeño (to taste). Dollop over the tangy guacamole, and garnish with the remaining coriander. Get stuck in, Chef!
