Best Oven Nachos Recipes

OVEN NACHOS

Steps:

• In a large skillet cook the ground beef with onions; cook stirring until meat is no longer pink. Drain all fat well. Continue to cook until the meat is well browned, about 4-5 minutes longer. Pour contents of taco seasoning pack into meat and add water as directed on the package. Continue to cook according to package directions.
• Add in the refried beans and salsa. Cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through.
• Add in 3/4 cup grated cheddar cheese; stir until melted.
• Place the tortilla chips on a large serving platter.
• Top with ground beef mixture, then sprinkle the top of the HOT ground beef mixture with about 1-1/2 cups (or to taste) grated cheddar cheese.
• Top with sour cream, green onions, chopped tomatoes, shredded lettuce, and sliced black olives.
• Serve hot or warm.

OVEN POTATO SLICE NACHOS

Steps:

• Slice the potatoes into 1/4-inch thick, then arrange in a single layer onto a large greased baking sheet/s.
• Sprinkle both sides with seasoned salt (or white salt) and black pepper.
• Place 4 inches from broiler heat and broil until golden brown; turn over the slices and broil other side of slices until browned and fork-tender.
• Remove from oven and top with taco sauce, green onions, chilies, shredded cheese and sliced olives.
• Broil until the cheese has melted.

OVEN SKILLET NACHOS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Pour a thin layer of enchilada sauce across the bottom of a large skillet. Spread the refried beans on top and add a little salt and pepper if desired. Then sprinkle on a little bit of cheese. I like to use a mix of freshly grated mozzarella and fontina.
• Next, layer on tortilla chips with another layer of cheese (about 3/4 cup). Repeat, so that you have 3 layers of chips. Top the final layer of chips with the remaining cheese. Drizzle 2 to 3 Tablespoons of the enchilada sauce on top. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the cheese is nice and bubbly hot.
• Top with your favorite toppings, just before serving. My favorites are guacamole and pico de gallo. Serve immediately.
