Zucchini Nachos

These low-carb nachos use zucchini slices in place of tortilla chips and ground chicken instead of beef as a healthier alternative to traditional nachos. Ground turkey also works well. You’ll never miss the chips! Feel free to use your favorite toppings.

Step: 1

Cut zucchini into 1/4-inch slices using a mandoline slicer. Place slices in a colander, sprinkle with salt, and toss to coat. Let drain for 30 minutes. Place slices on a clean kitchen towel and pat dry.

Step: 2

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a 12x18-inch baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step: 3

Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and saute until translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add chicken and cook until lightly browned, breaking meat up into small crumbles, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain and discard any accumulated liquid.

Step: 4

Return skillet to low heat and stir in chili powder, paprika, cumin, garlic powder, salt, oregano, and black pepper. Keep warm.

Step: 5

Place zucchini slices on the prepared baking pan in a single layer.

Step: 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes.

Step: 7

Remove zucchini from oven and top with chicken mixture and shredded Cheddar cheese. Return to the hot oven and bake until cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes more.

Step: 8

Top nachos with dollops of sour cream, pico de gallo, jalapeno, and green onions. Serve immediately.
