Reuben Nachos for Two

Since I love both nachos and Reuben sandwiches, I came up with this recipe to use up the remaining corned beef. This is an excellent dish to serve at a Super Bowl party and is easily duplicated.

Prep Time: 15 mins
Cook Time: 10 mins
Total Time: 25 mins
Servings: 2
Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients

  1. ½ cup leftover cubed corned beef
  2. ½ (14.5 ounce) can sauerkraut, drained
  3. ½ teaspoon caraway seed
  4. 4 cups tortilla chips
  5. ½ cup Thousand Island dressing
  6. 6 ounces shredded Swiss cheese

Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add corned beef and cook until crisp on all sides, about 5 minutes.
  2. Place drained sauerkraut in a bowl with caraway seed; stir to combine.
  3. Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven’s broiler to high.
  4. Place 1/2 of the chips in an oven-proof skillet. Scatter 1/2 of the corned beef and 1/2 of the sauerkraut on top of the chips. Drizzle 1/2 of the Thousand Island dressing over the corned beef and top with 1/2 of the Swiss cheese. Repeat layers once more.
  5. Broil in the preheated oven until cheese has melted, about 5 minutes.
  6. I recommend buying one of the darker Thousand Island dressings for eye appeal. It looks like a melted nacho cheese sauce once broiled.
