Instructions

Preheat oven to 450°F* and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. (We used 2 baking sheets.)
In a small bowl, combine the salt, paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper.
In a large bowl add sliced potatoes, olive oil, and seasoning mixture. Stir to evenly coat.
Place potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheets.
Bake for 20 minutes. Then, flip the potatoes and bake for an additional 7-9 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and combine all on one baking sheet. Sprinkle with cheese and bacon. Return the potatoes to the oven for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the cheese is completely melted.
Top with jalapeno, tomato, sour cream, shallots, and green onions.

Notes

*Air Fryer Instructions:
Season the potato rounds.
Place the potatoes into the basket of your air fryer. (Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may have to work in batches.)
Air fry at 360°F for 15 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, flipping the potatoes every five minutes.
Remove the potatoes from the air fryer and top with cheese and bacon.
Line the basket of your air fryer with parchment paper.
Again, working in batches, place the nachos back into the air fryer for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese melts.
Serve with your favorite toppings.
