Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crab

    In a mixing bowl, gently flake the snow crab meat with a fork to break it into bite-sized pieces. Be careful to remove any shell fragments.

  2. 2

    Melt the Queso

    In a small saucepan over low heat, warm the creamy queso cheese until it is smooth and creamy, stirring frequently to prevent it from burning.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Nachos

    On a large serving platter, spread the tortilla chips evenly. Pour the melted queso cheese over the chips, ensuring that they are well-covered.

  4. 4

    Add the Crab and Pico de Gallo

    Evenly distribute the flaked snow crab meat over the queso-covered chips. Spoon the pico de gallo generously on top of the crab.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Sprinkle chopped green onions and fresh cilantro over the nachos. If you like some heat, add sliced jalapeños on top.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the snow crab nachos immediately with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the nachos for added flavor.
