Servings: 4 people
Ingredients
For the truffle aioli:
- 2 tbsp mayonnaise
- ½ tbsp truffle oil
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ¼ tsp parsley flakes
- pinch of salt
For the nachos:
- 1 bag potato chips
- 1-2 oz garlic & herb cheese soft/spreadable
- 2-4 slices prosciutto torn/chopped
- ¼ cup blue cheese stuffed olives chopped
- ¼ cup kalamata olives chopped
- ⅓ cup freshly grated gouda
- black pepper to garnish
- parsley flakes to garnish
Instructions
For the truffle aioli:
- In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, truffle oil, black pepper, parsley flakes, and salt until combined. Transfer to a squeeze bottle or a small sandwich bag (when ready, cut a small hole in the corner of the bag to drizzle the aioli).
For the nachos:
- Preheat oven to 350ºF and spread chips onto a baking sheet. Bake for 5-10 minutes to get warm and crisp, but don't burn.
- Evenly scoop the garlic & herb cheese over the chips, then sprinkle some black pepper on top.
- Chop olives and rip/chop prosciutto into smaller pieces, then sprinkle both over the warm chips.
- Add the shredded gouda (or shred directly) on top of the chips in an even layer.
- Drizzle the aioli over the chips, add more pepper and parsley if desired, and serve warm.
Notes
- Utilize mise en place! Make sure you have all of your ingredients prepped and ready before you begin making this recipe - it will help save you time and keep you organized.
- If you want some extra melty cheese, add whatever spreadable cheese you've chosen to the chips before baking so it warms up nicely before adding the rest of your ingredients - just be sure to only bake for about 5 minutes if adding the cheese first!
- Choose your chips wisely. I love a sturdy, neutral chip for these nachos, like a salted waffle chip or a plain kettle cooked for maximum crunch. If you really want to up the flavor, try jalapeño kettle cooked chips or even wavy dill pickle chips!
- Have fun with toppings. I love the flavor profile of these nachos using the ingredients as listed, but you could totally add some fun extras like red onions, a different cured meat, or even a hot honey drizzle to complement the homemade truffle aioli!
