Sheet Pan Nachos
Description
This recipe starts by browning ground beef with garlic and taco seasoning to create a flavorful meat topping. The beef mixture is spread over a single layer of tortilla chips on a baking sheet, followed by black beans, corn, and shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses.
The nachos bake in a hot oven just long enough to melt the cheeses and warm the toppings thoroughly. After baking, they are garnished with fresh diced tomatoes, red onion, thinly sliced jalapeños, sour cream, and chopped cilantro, adding layers of freshness and varying textures.
The dish can be customized by substituting ground chicken or pork for the beef if desired. It’s well-suited for casual gatherings or quick meals where sharing is part of the experience.
