Italian Nachos

There is an Italian restaurant here named Johnny Carinos.

They have the best Italian Nachos.

They serve them with sliced black olives, but Tony doesn't like black olives

I know he's so crazy

How can you not like black olives

I can eat a whole can of them.

 They are also made with wonton wrappers.

I know, you would think wonton wrappers would make them Asian.

 They are drizzled with a homemade Alfredo sauce.

Topped with  Italian sausage and Roma tomatoes.

super yummy

I found this great recipe at Getoffyourbuttandbake.

ITALIAN NACHOS � Johnny Carino�s style

Ingredients:

1 Package wontons (found in the produce section),

cut on the diagonal to form triangles

1 package ground pork, cook in a saute pan until browned *

1 6-ounce package grilled chicken pieces

(sometimes found in the salad section) *

Shaved Parmesan for garnish

2 Roma tomatoes, diced

1/2 cup sliced olives

jalapenos (optional)

Grated Mozzarella Cheese for melting over the top (optional)

For the Cheese Sauce:

• 4 tablespoons butter


• 1 teaspoon garlic, minced


• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour


• 2 1/2 cups half-and-half


• 2 1/2 cups grated Parmigiana-Reggiano, or other good-quality Parmesan

Directions:

1. In a heavy, medium saucepan melt the
   butter over low heat. Add the garlic and then the flour and stir to
   combine. Cook, stirring constantly, for 3 minutes. Increase the heat to
   medium and whisk in the half-and-half little by little. Cook until
   thickened, about 4 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove from the
   heat; add 2 cups of the grated Parmesan. Season with the salt, pepper
   and stir until cheese is melted and sauce is smooth. Cover and set
   aside. *If the sauce becomes a bit thicker than you might like, simply
   add some milk or more half & half.


2. Heat a heavy saucepan or deep fryer to
   medium. Cook the wontons until light brown. This only takes a few
   seconds per side. Set aside on paper towels to drain.


3. Pile the wontons on a large serving
   platter. Drizzle with warm cheese sauce. Add sausage, chicken, tomatoes,
   olives and peppers. Top with shaved Parmesan. EAT IT!


4. You can also assemble the plate of Nachos,
   then sprinkle grated Mozzarella over all, and heat in the microwave
   just until cheese is melted.
