1
Make the Roux
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, stir in the flour and cook for about 1-2 minutes until bubbly and golden.
2
Add Milk
Gradually whisk in the milk, ensuring there are no lumps. Continue to whisk until the mixture is smooth and begins to thicken, about 3-5 minutes.
3
Incorporate Cheese
Lower the heat and add the shredded cheddar cheese gradually, stirring constantly until fully melted and smooth.
4
Season
Add salt and black pepper to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.

5
Prepare Tortilla Chips
On a large serving platter, spread out the corn tortilla chips evenly.
6
Add Cheese Sauce
Drizzle or spoon the cheese sauce over the tortilla chips, ensuring even coverage.
7
Add Jalapeños
Sprinkle sliced jalapeños over the top of the cheese-covered chips.
8
Serve with Sour Cream
Place sour cream in a small bowl and serve alongside the nachos for dipping.
