Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Caramelize the Onion

    Slice the onion thinly. In a medium skillet over medium heat, add a tablespoon of oil. Once hot, add the sliced onion and sauté for about 10-12 minutes until they become soft and caramelized. Stir occasionally to prevent burning. Remove from heat and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Meat

    In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of oil if needed and raise the heat to medium-high. Add the ground duck or beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.

  3. 3

    Add Sauces

    Once the meat is browned, stir in the chipotle and adobo sauces. Mix well and reduce heat to low, cooking for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the meat to absorb the flavors.

  4. 4

    Dice the Tomato

    While the meat is cooking, dice the tomato and chop the cilantro.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Layer the Nachos

    On a large serving platter, spread a layer of tortilla chips evenly. Top with the sautéed meat mixture, caramelized onions, diced tomatoes, and crumbled goat cheese.

  2. 6

    Add Garnishes

    Sprinkle chopped cilantro over the top and dollop sour cream as desired.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Serve immediately while warm, allowing guests to dig in with extra chips on the side.
