NACHOS WITH SHRIMP SALSA
Steps:
- In a non reactive bowl, combine marinade ingredients. Add shrimp, toss to coat, cover and refrigerate for 1 hour. Heat the 1/4 cup olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the shrimp and saute, stirring and shaking the pan to prevent sticking, until cooked, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer shrimp to a large bowl to cool. When cool, chop shrimp coarsely.
- Add tomato, green onions, lime juice, cilantro and salt to shrimp and toss to mix.
- Preheat the broiler. Spread tortilla chips out in an oven proof platter. Spoon the black beans over the chips and sprinkle with cheese. Place under the broiler until cheese melts, about 5 minutes.
- To serve, top with shrimp salsa.
SHRIMP NACHOS
This is my most requested recipe to bring to get-togethers and there's always someone who hasn't had them who asks for the recipe. You can make it days ahead of time and have it out of the oven in just a few minutes when you need it. Add more chipotle peppers if you like it spicier. This recipe makes a lot, but it actually freezes well. I usually freeze half of it and have it another time. If you're making it for a party, though, bring it all because it will be gone!

ACHIOTE SHRIMP NACHOS
Steps:

- Meanwhile, heat the canola oil to 350 degrees F in a tabletop deep-fryer or in a Dutch oven with a deep-fry thermometer attached. Place a wire rack over a sheet pan for draining. Fry the tortillas in small batches until crisped and golden, 4 to 6 minutes. Place on the rack to drain.
- While the tortillas fry, heat 3 tablespoons canola oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the shrimp and cook, turning once, until just cooked through, about 4 minutes. Set aside.
- Spoon the Black Bean Puree over the bottom of a large oval platter. Arrange the fried tortillas over the top. Spoon the Queso generously all over. Top with the shrimp. Sprinkle with avocado, pico de gallo and pickled chiles. Garnish with cilantro.
- Heat a 3-quart saucepan over medium heat. Add the oil, onions, jalapeno, coriander and cumin. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onion is soft, 4 to 6 minutes. Stir in the beans. Add the stock, crema and salt to taste. Bring to a simmer. Transfer the mixture to a blender and puree.
- Melt the butter in a 3-quart saucepan set over medium heat. Stir in the flour until combined. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Switch to a whisk and slowly whisk in the milk and cream. Whisk in the salt. Switch back to a spoon and cook, stirring, until thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the Cheddar and Jack cheeses. Turn the heat off and allow the cheese to melt.
