Method

  1. 1

    Line the bottom of a springform pan (24 cm) with baking paper, securing it between the bottom and the rim. Place the nachos in the bowl of a food processor and grind into fine crumbs. Add the melted butter and water. Add more water if necessary if the mixture feels dry and does not hold together. Press the mixture onto the bottom and up the sides of the pan. Pre-bake in a 200-degree oven for about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Take the chicken out to reach room temperature 30 minutes before cooking. Slice the bell peppers and spring onions. Finely chop half of the jalapeño slices.

  3. 3

    Brown the chicken in a pan with oil. Add the bell peppers and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes. Then add the spring onions, taco sauce, drained beans, chopped jalapeños, and spices. Simmer for 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Spread 1 dl of the grated cheese over the pre-baked crust. Add the chicken filling. Drizzle the cheese sauce on top and add the remaining grated cheese. Place the remaining jalapeño slices on top.

  5. 5
