Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Garlic Butter Corn

    In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in sweet corn and cook for 5-7 minutes until heated through and slightly caramelized. Remove from heat.

  2. 2

    Make the Spicy Lime Crema

    In a small bowl, combine sour cream, lime juice, and minced jalapeño. Mix well and adjust seasoning to taste. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Nachos

    On a large baking sheet, spread a layer of tortilla chips. Top with garlic butter corn, crab meat, and cheese sauce. Repeat layers as desired.

  4. 4

    Bake the Nachos

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the nachos for about 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese sauce is bubbly.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove nachos from the oven. Top with pickled red onions, cilantro, and drizzle with spicy lime crema. Serve immediately.
