I LOVE the Italian Nachos at Johnny Carino's. This is a recipe I am working on to get my fix at home.
Ingredients:
12 wonton wrappers
1 egg white, frothed
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon oregano or 1/2 teaspoon italian seasoning mix
1/2 lb italian sausage, cooked and crumbled
1 (10 ounce) container refrigerated four cheese pasta sauce or 1 (10 ounce) container alfredo sauce
1/2 cup chopped tomato
1/4 cup sliced green onion
1 (2 1/4 ounce) can sliced ripe olives
2 tablespoons pickled jalapeno peppers (more to taste) or 2 tablespoons banana peppers, chopped
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Directions:
1. Cut wontons into 4 triangles each and toss lightly in olive oil.
2. Cover a cookie sheet with a single layer of wontons. Brush with egg white and sprinkle with oregano or Italian seasoning.
3. Bake at 400ºF for 6 minutes or until lightly browned.
4. Meanwhile, heat the sauce, brown the Italian sausage and drain fat.
5. On a platter layer the pasta chips, sausage, and sauce. Top with the tomato, onions, olives and peppers. Finish with shredded cheese and red pepper flakes.
6. Place in warm oven for 5 minutes to melt cheese and serve.
