Ingredients
- 1 1⁄2 cups fresh blueberries
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons jalapeno, diced
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup canola oil
- 12 corn tortillas, each cut into 6 triangles
- 1 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 8 ounces brie cheese, rind removed and cubed
- 2 cups fontina cheese, shredded
- 1⁄3 cup sour cream, for topping
- 2 green onions, chopped
- Hot sauce, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400. Combine blueberries, sugar, jalapeno, and lemon juice in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir well and as the blueberries warm, mash them slightly with a spoon, leaving some blueberries whole. Simmer for 5 minutes and set aside.
- Add the canola oil to a skillet and heat over medium heat. Once the oil is heated, add tortilla triangles. Using tongs, turn the chips over when the bottom sides turn a light golden color, about 1 to 2 minutes. Once both sides of the tortilla chips are a golden color, remove them from the pan onto a paper towel-lined plate. Sprinkle the chili powder and salt.
- Set the chips into a cast iron skillet or other oven-safe dish. Add the cheeses on top of the tortilla triangles and bake for 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove from the oven and top with the blueberry sauce. Then top with sour cream, green onions and hot sauce.
