Ingredients

  • Tortilla chips

Method

1. Cook the meat

Cook until saucy.

2. Layer the nachos

On a sheet pan:

  • chips
  • cheese
  • meat
  • beans
  • jalapeños

Then repeat another layer.

The layering is what makes them “viral-style” instead of dry chips on the bottom.

  • for 8–10 minutes

Until cheese is fully melted and bubbling.

Serve immediately.


Tips

  • Use thick tortilla chips so they stay crisp.
  • Freshly shredded cheese melts better.
  • Add queso after baking for extra richness.
  • Great for game nights or sharing platters.
