Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef (80/20 recommended)
  • 1 small onion, finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 14 oz sturdy tortilla chips
  • 1 cup canned black beans, drained and rinsed (or pinto beans)
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1/2 cup pickled jalapeño slices (optional)
  • 1/2 cup sour cream (for topping)
  • 1/2 cup salsa or pico de gallo (for topping)
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (for topping)
  • 1 medium avocado, diced or sliced (for topping)
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced (for topping)
  • Lime wedges (for serving)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and cook for 3-4 minutes, breaking up the meat until browned.
  3. Add diced onion and cook for another 2 minutes until softened.
  4. Stir in garlic, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2 more minutes until fragrant and beef is cooked through. Drain excess fat if needed.
  5. Spread tortilla chips evenly over the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Spoon beef mixture evenly over the chips. Sprinkle black beans across the tray.
  7. Scatter shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese over the top. Add jalapeños if desired.
  8. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly and edges of chips are golden.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool for 2-3 minutes.
  10. Top with dollops of sour cream, salsa, avocado, cilantro, green onions, and a squeeze of lime.
  11. Serve immediately while hot and fresh.

Notes

Layer half the cheese under the beef and beans, and half on top for maximum meltiness. Use thick, sturdy chips to prevent sogginess. Prep all toppings before baking so nachos can be served hot. For vegetarian nachos, swap beef for plant-based crumbles or sautéed mushrooms. If cheese isn’t melting evenly, broil for 1 minute, watching closely.
