Method

Preparation of Tortilla Chips

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tortilla Chips

    Spread the tortilla chips evenly on a large baking sheet. Ensure they are not overlapping to allow for even heating.

Cheese Melting

  1. 2

    Add Cheese

    Sprinkle the shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese evenly over the tortilla chips, covering as many chips as possible.

  2. 3

    Melt the Cheese

    Place the baking sheet in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 10 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.

Adding Toppings

  1. 4

    Add Jalapeños

    Once the cheese is melted, remove the baking sheet from the oven and quickly add the sliced jalapeños on top of the cheesy nachos.

  2. 5

    Garnish with Cilantro

    Sprinkle chopped fresh cilantro over the nachos for added flavor and color.

Serving

  1. 6

    Serve with Salsa

    Serve the nachos hot with a bowl of store-bought salsa on the side for dipping.
