Speedy Chicken Nachos

 

What do you do when you hubby rings you up and says, "Hey hun, remember we have people coming for lunch? Have you made anything? They're arriving in five minutes...?"
OK, first you kill him. And then you make nachos.
Problem, you have no minced beef.
That's OK. We have chicken.
So we make chicken nachos. And it takes five minutes. And it's so yummy, everybody is impressed, and happy - even the fussy kids...

Easy Chicken Nachos

Ingredients
500g chicken meat, diced
1 can condensed tomato soup
1 can mild chilli beans
1 cup frozen corn kernels

PLUS:
corn chips (large bag)
grated cheese
lite sour cream

Method:
  • brown the diced chicken in a little oil until cooked through
  • tip in can of beans
  • tip in can of soup
  • tip in cup of frozen corn
  • smile at your guest who has just arrived :)

On individual plates arrange the corn chips and sprinkle grated cheese over. Microwave each plate on high for 30secs or until cheese is melted.
Spoon chilli mixture onto chips and top with a blob of sour cream.

Enjoy the fact that you have a delicious meal full of goodness ready in 10 minutes flat, fifteen tops.
(serves six)

Note: This meal is easily made gluten free by checking that (a) your chilli beans are gluten free. Some brands are. Some brands aren't. And (b) your corn chips are cluten free. Plain Doritos are GF. Most other btands are, but you need to use salted or plain (the flavourings often use wheat)
