Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Tortilla chips
- 4 slices Bacon
- 1 cup Canned chili (with or without beans)
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 1 cup Diced tomatoes
- 0.25 cup Sliced jalapeños (pickled or fresh)
- 2 tablespoons Chopped green onions
- 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easier cleanup.
Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Transfer the cooked bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain, then crumble it into small pieces.
Warm the canned chili in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally until heated through. Set aside.
Spread half of the tortilla chips in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle half of the cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses on top.
Drizzle half of the warmed chili over the chips and cheese, then sprinkle half of the crumbled bacon over the chili.
Repeat the layering process with the remaining tortilla chips, cheeses, chili, and bacon.
Place the nachos in the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
Carefully remove the nachos from the oven. Add your desired toppings: dollops of sour cream, diced tomatoes, sliced jalapeños, chopped green onions, and cilantro if using.
Serve immediately on the baking sheet or transfer to a large serving platter. Enjoy your Chili Bacon Nachos while warm and gooey!
