Asian Nachos With Pecorino, Cheddar

Features:
    Cuisine:

      These nachos are made from won ton wraps. I cut them into triangles and fry them to a light golden brown. Traditionally, Chinese restaurants will create a "giveaway" snack by frying up leftover noodles or wonton pieces. These snacks have become so popular, some restaurants have added this snack to their menus. One restaurant, a non-Asian restaurant called Romano's Macaroni Grill did a playful spin by topping these crisps with asiago and parmesan cheeses, bell peppers, chicken, and green onions. My version has a more-dramatic presentation and features garlicky Black Tiger Shrimp, Pecorino and Cheddar Cheeses, a black bean and Thai aromatic trinity (see recipe below).

      I serve this with a lemongrass-plum bbq sauce.
      TIP: When assembling the dish, alternate in layers (crisps, salsa, shrimp)
