Craving for a delicious twist on classic nachos? Our Spicy Nachos Jacket Potatoes combine the best elements of both dishes to create a hearty and flavorful meal. This recipe features perfectly baked potatoes topped with spiced ground beef, fresh vegetables, and creamy avocado, making it a perfect dish for any occasion.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash and prick each potato several times with a fork to allow steam to escape while baking.
- Rub the potatoes with 1 tbsp of the olive oil and place them directly on the oven rack.
- Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
- While the potatoes are baking, heat the remaining 1 tbsp of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the finely chopped onion and cook until it becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook until browned and fully cooked through, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon as it cooks, about 7-10 minutes.
- Stir in the chili powder, ground cumin, and dried coriander. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to blend the flavors.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and set aside.
- While the beef is cooking, prepare the toppings:
- Shred the lettuce leaves.
- Grate the cheddar cheese if not pre-shredded.
- Dice the avocado.
- Dice the tomato.
- Once the potatoes are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly.
- Cut a slit lengthwise on top of each potato and gently squeeze the sides to open them up.
- Fluff the inside of each potato with a fork.
- Start by spooning a generous amount of the beef mixture into each potato.
- Top with shredded lettuce, grated cheddar cheese, diced avocado, and diced tomato.
6. Serve:
- Serve the spicy nachos jacket potatoes immediately while they are hot and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors and textures!
Tips:
- Choose potatoes that are similar in size to ensure they cook evenly.
- For a crispy skin, coat the potatoes lightly with olive oil and bake at a high temperature.
- Cook the ground beef thoroughly, ensuring it's well-seasoned with the chili powder, cumin, and coriander for an extra flavorful topping.
- Feel free to customize the toppings based on your preference. Adding jalapeños, sour cream, or extra cheese can elevate the flavors even more.
- Serve immediately after assembling to enjoy the best texture and flavor.
With these Spicy Nachos Jacket Potatoes, you've got a delicious and satisfying meal that's perfect for sharing with family or friends. The combination of baked potatoes, spicy beef, and fresh toppings ensures each bite is packed with flavor. Enjoy this fusion of two favorite dishes in one!
