Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Cook the Meat

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook your choice of chicken, pork, or steak until fully cooked. Season with salt, pepper, and any additional spices you like. Once cooked, shred or chop the meat into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Nachos

    On a large baking sheet or oven-safe dish, layer tortilla chips evenly. Top with the cooked meat, then sprinkle shredded cheese generously over the top.

  3. 3

    Melt the Cheese

    Place the baking sheet in the oven and broil on high for about 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.

  4. 4

    Add Fresh Toppings

    Once the cheese is melted, remove from the oven and immediately add fresh toppings: lettuce, diced tomatoes, chopped cilantro, diced onions, and pickled jalapeños.

  5. 5

    Serve with Salsa and Sour Cream

    Drizzle salsa over the nachos and add dollops of sour cream on top. Serve hot and enjoy!
