Instructions

  1. Shred the asiago and combine with the Chihuahua cheese and set aside.
  2. Season both sides of the chicken breast liberally with Cajun or blackening seasoning. Sauté the chicken breast in 2 tablespoons of olive oil, over medium heat. Cook until cooked through, about 3-5 minutes per side. If you are using a temp probe, cook to an internal temperature of 165 degrees, then remove from the heat.
  3. Dice the chicken and set aside.
  4. In a skillet, cook the chorizo and cook until it is cooked through. Drain the fat and set aside.
  5. Dice the tomato, onion, and any other additional toppings that you choose to use.
  6. To make the Mornay sauce melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a saucepan, over medium heat. Once the butter is melted, whisk in 1 tablespoon of flour. Continue to whisk continuously for about 2 minutes.
  7. Decrease the temp to low and slowly add in the cream, about ¼ cup at a time, stirring constantly after each addition.
  8. Stir in the cheese and mix until the cheese is melted. If the sauce is getting too thick, thin with additional cream or milk.
  9. Place the wonton chips in a 9x13 pan and top with the meats, olives, peppers, and onion. Pour the cheese sauce over the nachos and then warm in a 350 degree oven for about 5-10 minutes. Remove from the oven and top with the diced tomatoes.
