Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Cook until the beef is browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add Jalapeños

    Stir in the sliced jalapeños and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until they are tender.

  3. 3

    Mix in Hot Sauce

    Add the hot sauce to the beef and jalapeños mixture, stirring well to combine. Remove from heat.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Dish

    On a serving platter, spread the tortilla chips evenly. Pour the beef and jalapeño mixture over the chips. Top with shredded cheddar cheese.

  5. 5

    Melt the Cheese

    Place the assembled platter under a broiler for 2-3 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from the oven, drizzle with sour cream, and sprinkle with chopped green onions. Serve immediately.
