Irish Nachos Recipe

Ingredients

• 7 cups of Kettle cooked potato chips (One 8.5 oz. bag of original or sea salt, do not use a flavored variety)
• 1 1/2 cups of shredded Swiss cheese
• 1 cup of sauerkraut
• 1 1/2 cups of corned beef (chopped)
• 1/2 cup Thousand Island dressing
• 1/4 cup of green onion (sliced)
• 1 Tablespoon Butter
• 1 Tablespoon All Purpose Flour
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1/2 cup Guinness beer
• 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese (grated)

Instructions

1. 1

   To make these corned beef nachos, start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (177 degrees Celsius).

2. 2

   Evenly spread out the potato chips on a large, rimmed baking sheet.

3. 3

   Sprinkle the shredded Swiss cheese evenly over the potato chips.

4. 4

   Layer the sauerkraut on top of the Swiss cheese.

5. 5

   Assemble the ingredients for the Guinness beer cheese sauce that is used in this recipe for Irish Nachos.

6. 6

   Start making the beer cheese sauce by melting the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Once melted, whisk in the flour continuously for about 1 minute.

7. 7

   Slowly add in the milk while whisking constantly.

8. 8

   Whisk in the Guinness beer, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and salt. Keep whisking until it comes to a slow boil and then continue whisking until thickened.

9. 9

   Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the grated cheddar cheese 1/2 cup at a time, whisking after each addition.

10. 10

    Top the sauerkraut with the beer cheese sauce, and add the chopped corned beef on top of the nachos.

11. 11

    Bake for 6-8 minutes until the Swiss cheese is melted. Do not overbake where the chips start turning brown.

12. 12

    Drizzle a thin line of Thousand Island dressing back and forth over the nachos. You can use a zip top bag with a small hole cut out of the corner to do this.

13. 13

    Sprinkle the green onion slices over the top. Make sure to serve it while it's still warm.
