Category: Seafood
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

1 (16-oz) bag corn tortilla chips
2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar
2 cups shredded Pepper Jack cheese
1 tbsp butter
1 clove garlic, minced
8 oz lump crabmeat, picked clean of shells, chopped
1/2 lb shrimp, boiled, peeled, deveined, and tails removed, chopped
1/2 lb scallops, muscle removed, chopped
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 tsp garlic powder
2 cups grated Parmesan
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce, for topping
1 cup pico de gallo, for topping
10 to 12 pickled jalapeno slices, for topping
Sour cream, for topping

Preheat the oven to 350.

In a large baking pan or cast iron pan place a layer of the tortilla chips and cover with the shredded Cheddar and Pepper Jack cheeses. Bake the chips for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the cheeses are melted. Remove the dish from the oven and set aside.

In a large saute pan over medium-high heat, melt the butter and saute the garlic until soft. Add the crabmeat, shrimp, and scallops and saute for 3 minutes.

Add the cream, garlic powder, Parmesan, salt and pepper, to taste, to the seafood and stir for 2 to 3 minutes, until the sauce has thickened.

Remove the seafood mixture from the heat and pour over the tortilla chips. Top the nachos with shredded lettuce, pico de gallo, jalapenos, and a large dollop of sour cream. Serve immediately.
