Tortilla Chips

Queso

Toppings

Method

Preparing Tortilla Chips

  1. 1

    Fry the Tortilla Chips

    Heat vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, cut corn tortillas into quarters and carefully add them to the oil in batches. Fry until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch. Use a slotted spoon to remove chips and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt while still warm.

Making Queso

  1. 2

    Prepare the Queso

    In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine Velveeta cheese, cream cheese, and milk. Stir until melted and smooth. Add diced green chilies and ground cumin, mixing well. Keep on low heat to maintain warmth.

Assembling Nachos

  1. 3

    Layer the Nachos

    On a large serving platter or baking sheet, spread a layer of tortilla chips. Drizzle warm queso over the chips, then sprinkle Chihuahua cheese evenly across. Add black beans, pickled jalapeños, and dollops of crema on top.

  2. 4

    Finish with Salsas

    Drizzle salsa roja and salsa fresca over the top of the nachos. Serve immediately while warm.
