Years ago we were a part of a trial group testing out new recipes for a restaurant chain. We were paid for our opinion which made this a fun date night.
We had never heard of langostinos before and maybe you haven’t either. They are Scotland’s native prawn that taste oh so good!
For years we have duplicated this recipe using baby shrimp. When we recently discovered that our local Publix sells langostinos wild caught and frozen, we couldn’t wait to try it.

Obviously it was a success or it wouldn’t make it on our blog. Right now Publix has them on sale too if you’d like to try them.
Langostino Nachos
Ingredients:
- 1 bag frozen langostinos
- Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and diced
- 1 scallion, diced
- Tortilla chips
- Lemon, optional for garnish
Layer tortillas in baking sheet. Then cover with mozzarella cheese. Add jalapeno, then langostinos then green onions.
Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes.
Serve hot, adding a squirt of lemon, if desired.
We love any nachos, but these take it to a new level. Let us know what you think.
Until next time…



Loved langostinos when I served as a short-term missionary in Quito, Ecuador (long ago!). Don’t know that I’ve had them since! / Did I know you folks live in FL? Perhaps I just forgot. My husband and I called FL home for 40 years during his years as a pastor. You’re right about the intense heat! (Don’t miss that at all, now that we live in the Midwest!)

Nancy, I was born in Orlando—a native which is rare to find these days. Despite the heat I wouldn’t live anywhere else. I love Central FL!
I had never had these before but now they are a favorite treat.
Blessings.

We never lived in the Orlando area; our “assignments” were on the coasts. Palm Beach County was home for 23 years, first in the northern portion, then central. Glad you don’t mind the heat!
