Heat corn or peanut oil in deep-fryer to 375°F/190°C. When the deep fryer is ready: Fry 2 stacks of the tortilla triangles for 40 to 45 seconds. Chips will be lightly-browned and puffed in spots. Transfer to a large baking pan that's been lined with 3 to 4 layers of paper towels. Using a spatula, quickly and randomly separate the chips into a single layer and lightly salt their tops ASAP. Repeat process 5 more times. To assemble the nachos, line a 17-1/2 x 12-1/2" baking pan with aluminum foil, then, place a piece of parchment paper in the bottom. Arrange chips across the bottom of pan, in a semi-single layer, allowing them to overlap and double-up occasionally. Scatter about 2/3rds (4 cups) of the shredded Monterey Jack cheese over the surface of the tortilla chips. By teaspoonfuls, drop blotches of refried bean dip over the Jack cheese. Scatter the chicken fajita mixture over the entire surface, followed by the remaining shredded cheese. To bake and garnish the nachos, place on center rack of 350°F/175°C oven and bake until Jack cheese is melted and shows bubbly signs of light-browning, 6 to 7 minutes. Remove from oven. Without hesitation decoratively drizzle with the avocado crema and Mexican crema or sour cream. Serve ASAP. Place pan on table or cocktail table & get out the napkins: Recipe by Melanie Preschutti Recipe FROM: https://www.bitchinfrommelanieskitchen.com Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM
