Air-fryer nachos




There’s no need for the oven for this classic. Layers of nacho chips and smoky chicken in a tangy sauce are covered in mozzarella and cooked in the air-fryer until melted and golden.

Ingredients
Method
- 3 T canola oil
- 1 onion, halved and thinly sliced
- sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 4 cloves garlic, finely grated or chopped
- 400 g Woolworths free-range smoked chicken breasts
- 2 jalapeno chillies, thinly sliced, plus extra to garnish
- 1 x 400 g can Woolworths Mexican-style tomato-and-chipotle soup
- 250 g Woolworths salted nacho chips
- 200 g Woolworths grated mozzarella cheese
- 1 ripe avocado, cut into chunks
- 1 cup sour cream
- 10 g coriander, roughly chopped
- 1 –2 limes, zested and cut into wedges, for serving
Method
Ingredients
1. Heat the oil in a pan over a medium heat, add the onion and season lightly with salt. Cook until the onion is soft and just taking on some colour. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
2. While the garlic and onions are cooking, cut the chicken into small chunks and add to the pan. Add the jalapenos and combine, then cook for 5 minutes.
3. Pour in the soup cook until slightly reduced so that it’s more of a sauce than a soup. This should take about 10 minutes. Season to taste once reduced.
4. Line an air-fryer with a liner, then add some of the nacho chips, sauce, chicken and cheese. Repeat until all the ingredients are used or until the air-fryer basket is full. Place in the air-fryer and cook for 10 minutes, or until the cheese has melted. Carefully lift the liner from the basket and place on a platter.
5. Top the nachos with the avocado, sour cream, coriander, jalapenos and lime zest. Serve the lime wedges on the side.
