Preparing Easy Lobster Nachos
Combine the milk and flour in a saucepan. Place your saucepan on the stovetop and set the burner to low heat. Add butter to the pan. When the butter has melted completely, add the milk to the pan. Whisk your flour into this mixture a little bit at a time. Whisk consistently while adding the flour.
Add cheese to the saucepan. Pour the cheese into the saucepan little by little, whisking as you do so until no cheese remains. Continue to whisk the mixture until it thickens and the cheese is fully melted. Season this to taste with salt and pepper and remove the cheese from the heat.
Pour your cheese mixture onto tortilla chips. Pour out your chips onto a serving plate. Use a wooden spoon, ladle, or similar kitchen implement to transfer your cheese onto the chips. If you prefer a lighter nacho, use a moderate amount of cheese mixture. For richer nachos, use all the cheese. You may want to save a little cheese for later. After topping your chips and cheese mixture with ingredients, another layer of cheese can improve creaminess.
Top your nachos and enjoy. On top of the tortilla chips and cheese, spread the chives, tomatoes, corn, beans, radishes, avocado, and lobster meat. If you enjoy spicy nachos, drizzle some hot sauce over the ingredients. Scoop up ingredients with tortilla chips and enjoy this dish by hand or with a fork. If you have saved some cheese mixture, after you have topped the chips, drizzle the remaining cheese on the topping ingredients.
Cooking Classic Lobster Nachos
Fry your tortillas. Fill a medium sized skillet with your cooking oil. Use a medium heat to heat the oil. Insert your tortillas into the skillet. Allow these to fry in the oil for about one minute per side. Turn the tortillas with tongs, a fork, or a similar utensil. Place the tortillas on paper towel when they are done to soak up excess oil. Add salt to the tortillas to taste. These home fried tortillas will be fresh, but you could also use tortilla chips in place of these fried pieces of tortilla.
Heat the lobster, if necessary. If you've just cooked the lobster, it's likely still hot and this step can be skipped. If not, place a sauté pan on the stovetop and set the burner to a low heat. Coat the bottom of the pan with the lemon oil. Add the lobster meat to the pan and cook it until the meat is warm. This usually takes about 5 minutes. When the lobster is heated, remove it from the heat and set it aside for later. You may want to cover your lobster so it stays hot.
Combine topping ingredients in a bowl. In a large mixing bowl, use a wooden spoon or a similar kitchen implement to thoroughly mix together the corn, tomatoes, chopped mint and cilantro, jalapeno, black beans, jicama, lime juice, chili powder, and garlic salt. Continue to mix these ingredients until they are consistently distributed. If you’re sensitive to spicy things, remove the jalapeno and chili powder from these ingredients. For milder nachos, halve the amount used for these ingredients.
Assemble your nachos. Spread a thick layer of tortilla chips onto four serving plates. Evenly distribute the bean salsa you prepared in the mixing bowl on top of the chips. On each plate, arrange a ½ cup (118 ml) of lobster meat on top of the bean salsa. Add the rest of your ingredients as garnishes and enjoy.
Serving Gourmet Lobster Nachos
Combine your topping ingredients in a bowl. Add the tomatoes, radishes, onion, oil, lime juice, vinegar, and ¼ cup (59 ml) of cilantro to a mixing bowl. Use a wooden spoon, a similar kitchen implement, or your clean hands to toss these ingredients until they are evenly distributed. There will be excess liquid in the bowl after you’ve tossed the ingredients. To prevent your tortilla chips from getting soggy, drain excess liquid from these topping ingredients.
Melt your cheese sauce. Add your cheese to a medium sized saucepan. Pour the cornstarch over the cheese and use a kitchen implement or your clean hands to toss these ingredients. Put evaporated milk into the saucepan as well, then cook this mixture over a medium-low heat, whisking all ingredients consistently. When the cheese has completely melted and the mixture has become thick, your cheese sauce is done. This generally takes about 4 to 8 minutes. When your cheese sauce is done, taste it. You may notice it needs a little salt. Whisk salt into the mixture then taste it again. Do this until the desired flavor is achieved.
Assemble the nachos. Spread a single layer of whole tortilla chips on a serving plate. Use a heaping spoonful of the topping ingredients for each chip. On top of the topping ingredients, add the lobster meat and avocado.
Drizzle your cheese sauce on top and enjoy. Pour the cheese mixture from your saucepan onto the tortilla chips and their ingredients. Improve presentation and add a little extra to your nachos by sprinkling the remainder of your cilantro on the chips and cheese.
Finished.
