Chicken Mince Air Fryer Nachos

Ingredients

Serves: 4

2tsp olive or rapeseed oil
1 onion, finely diced
1 clove garlic, finely chopped or grated
2 Green peppers, chopped into 2cm dice
500g Chicken Mince
1 tbsp tomato puree
1-2 green chilli’s finely chopped
1 tsp dried oregano
2 tsp paprika
1 tbsp ground cumin
2 tbsp ground coriander
1 400g tin tomatoes
1 tin black beans, drained
120g cheddar cheese, grated

For the Tortillas

6 wraps

To serve (optional)

Guacamole/ avocado
Natural yoghurt
Picked chilli’s

Method

Heat the oil in the pan and gently sweat off the onions for 5-8 mins until soft and golden

Add the garlic, green chilli’s and green peppers and cook for a further 5 mins to soften the peppers

Add the chicken mince and fry until lightly coloured

Add the tomato puree, oregano, paprika, cumin and coriander and cook for a further 1 minute

Add the tomatoes and beans and stir into the other ingredients. Half fill the bean tin with water and add this to the pan

Simmer everything gently for 15minutes

Whilst the sauce is cooking you can make the tortilla chips. Cut each tortilla wrap into 8 triangles

Preheat the air fryer to 200°C

Put the tortilla triangles into your air fryer until it is full (about a quarter, depending on the size of your air fryer)

Air fry for 3-4 minutes, checking and turning regularly, until they are slightly crisp

Repeat until all the triangles have been cooked

Once the sauce is cooked, remove the plates from your air fryer and place some nacho chips in the bottom of the pan, add some sauce and then sprinkle a little cheese. Add another layer of nachos, more sauce and then the rest of the cheese (I save more cheese for the top than the middle!) (I find it easiest to do 2 portions of nachos at a time due to the capacity of my air fryer pan).

Cook the nachos in the air fryer on 200°C until the cheese has melted (3-5mins)

🍽️ Kate’s Top Tip: If you don’t have an air fryer then layer the nachos in baking trays in the same way and pop under the grill under the cheese has melted. You can make the nacho chips by placing the tortilla triangles on a tray in an oven at 200°C for around 5 minutes, turning halfway.
