Instructions

  1. Slice the corn tortillas in half and set aside.
  2. Add enough canola oil to a large pot to fill about 1.5 inches and heat to medium. Do not bring to a boil. The temp should measure 375 degrees F.
  3. Add the halved tortillas in small batches and fry them about a minute or so per side, until they are lightly browned and crispy. Drain on paper towels and dash them with salt.
  4. When they are cooled, spread a spoonful of refried beans over each tortilla, then top them with Colby Jack cheese and top with jalapeno peppers.
  5. Bake them at 350 degrees F about 10 minutes, or until the cheese is nicely melted.
  6. Serve with diced tomato over the top, with crema and hot sauce on the side.
  7. Extra hot sauce for me!

Notes

  • Makes 20 1/2 tortilla nacho pieces.
