Time 40m

Yield 12 nachos

Number Of Ingredients 9

Three 6-inch corn tortillas
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 pickle spears, finely chopped
1/4 small white onion, finely chopped
1/2 pound ground beef
Kosher salt
7 slices American cheese, quartered
2 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
Ketchup and yellow mustard, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Brush both sides of the tortillas with 1 tablespoon oil. Stack the tortillas and cut the pile into quarters. Spread the chips out in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake until crisp and just beginning to turn golden brown, rotating the pan halfway through, 14 to 16 minutes. (Leave the oven on.)
  • Meanwhile, mix the pickles and onions in a small bowl and set aside. Heat the remaining tablespoon oil in a medium skillet. Add the ground beef and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook over medium heat, breaking it up into small pieces and stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in 16 pieces of the American cheese and cook, stirring often, until the cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Evenly divide the beef mixture among the tortilla chips. Place one piece of American cheese over the beef on each chip and bake until the cheese is melted, 4 to 5 minutes. Evenly top each chip with the pickle mixture, and then with some bacon. Top the chips with a squeeze of ketchup and mustard and serve.
