Loaded Sheet Pan Nachos
Ingredients
  • 1 pound ground beef (80% lean)
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) package tortilla chips
  • 1 (12 ounce) jar pickled jalapeno pepper slices
  • 1 (4 ounce) can sliced black olives
  • 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
  • 1 cup salsa
Instructions
1
Position the oven rack approximately 6 inches away from the heat source and activate the broiler. Cover a baking sheet with aluminum foil to facilitate easy cleanup.
2
Heat a large, deep skillet over high heat. Sear ground beef in the hot skillet until it reaches a browned, crumbly state, typically within 5 to 7 minutes. Combine the ground beef with water, chili powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper in a well-mixed solution.
3
Arrange tortilla chips on the prepared baking sheet. Spread the ground beef mixture evenly over the top of the tortilla chips. Add a layer of jalapeño slices and olives, followed by a sprinkle of Cheddar cheese.
4
Place the baking sheet under the preheated broiler and cook until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown, usually within 3 to 5 minutes. Serve with a side of sour cream and salsa for dipping purposes.
