Oven Nachos Recipes

STEVEN'S BAKED NACHOS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x9 inch baking dish.
• Place the chicken on a microwave-safe plate, cover with a paper towel, and place in a microwave oven. Cook on high power until the chicken is no longer pink and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Cool, and use a knife to shred the chicken. Set aside.
• Place the refried beans in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until thoroughly heated.
• Layer half the chips, 1/2 cup cheese, and green onions on the bottom of prepared baking dish. Spoon the refried beans over the chip mixture. Sprinkle with another 1/2 cup cheese, and spread with the sour cream. Arrange the shredded chicken over the sour cream layer. Top with the remaining chips and 1/2 cup cheese.
• Bake in preheated oven until the cheese melts throughout, 15 to 18 minutes.

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.

NACHOS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Spread half the chips out in a large shallow casserole dish or on an ovenproof platter. Top with half the beans, in small spoonfuls, and scatter with half the chiles. Repeat with the remaining chips, beans, and chiles. Sprinkle the top of the nachos with the cheese. Bake until heated through and the cheese melts, about 3 to 5 minutes. Top the nachos with dollops of the sour cream and serve.
• Pour the oil into a large heavy-bottomed pot to a depth of about 2 inches. Place a deep-frying thermometer in the pot. Heat the oil over medium heat to 360 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, stack the tortillas, and cut the pile into sixths to make chips.
• Raise the heat to high. Working in batches, fry the chips, turning them with a skimmer or slotted spoon, until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the chips to a paper towel-lined pan to drain. (Return the oil to the proper temperature between batches.) Cool and season with salt. Serve.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Brush both sides of the tortillas with the oil. Stack the tortillas and cut the pile into sixths to make chips. Spread the chips out in a single layer on two large baking sheets and season with salt. Bake until golden brown and crisp, rotating the baking sheets once, about 12 to 15 minutes. Serve.
• In a small bowl, mash two-thirds of the beans with a fork or potato masher. Reserve the whole beans separately.
• In a medium skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat and add the onion. Cook until lightly browned, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring for 1 to 2 minutes more. Add the spices and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute more. Add the mashed beans and half the broth and cook, stirring frequently until thickened, about 5 minutes. Add the whole beans and the remaining broth and simmer about 4 to 5 minutes more until thickened but not pasty. Season with the salt and pepper, and stir in the fresh coriander, if desired. Serve.

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.

SUPER NACHOS

Steps:

• Cook and stir ground beef in a skillet over medium heat until meat is crumbly and no longer pink, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain excess grease. Stir in taco seasoning mix and water and simmer until beef mixture has thickened, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Spread tortilla chips on the prepared baking sheet; top with Cheddar cheese and dot with refried beans and ground beef mixture.
• Broil in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, watching carefully to prevent burning, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Top nachos with salsa, sour cream, black olives, green onions, and jalapeno peppers.

BAKED NACHOS

Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 25 minutes or until heated through. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake 5 minutes longer or until cheese is melted.

THE ORIGINAL NACHOS

Steps:

• Set racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and heat to 400 degrees.
• Spread the tortilla chips in a single layer on two large sheet pans. Place a scant tablespoon of shredded cheese over each chip, pressing slightly to adhere. Top each chip with 1 or 2 slices pickled jalapeño. Sprinkle or spoon the pickled jalapeño brine all over the chips. Bake until cheese melts completely and begins to lightly brown at the edges, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Serve nachos immediately, directly on the hot baking sheets, or use a spatula to transfer them to a platter.
