A quick and easy sheet pan nachos recipe perfect for parties and casual gatherings, featuring layers of crunchy chips, seasoned ground beef, melty cheese, and fresh toppings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • Tortilla chips (thick, sturdy)
  • 1 pound (450g) lean ground beef (90% lean preferred)
  • 2 cups (200g) shredded sharp cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese blend
  • 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1–2 fresh jalapeños, sliced thinly
  • 1 can (15 oz / 425g) black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 medium Roma tomatoes, diced
  • 3 stalks green onions, chopped
  • Small bunch cilantro, chopped (optional)
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp oregano
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (extra virgin preferred)
  • Sour cream and guacamole for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
  3. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute.
  4. Add ground beef, break it up with a wooden spoon, and cook until browned, about 6-8 minutes. Drain excess fat if needed.
  5. Stir in chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2 more minutes to deepen flavors. Remove from heat.
  6. Line a large rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  7. Spread tortilla chips evenly across the sheet pan in a single layer.
  8. Scatter the cooked beef mixture evenly over the chips. Then sprinkle rinsed black beans and sliced jalapeños.
  9. Generously sprinkle shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese over everything.
  10. Bake in the oven for 8-10 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly and chip edges start to brown.
  11. Remove from oven and immediately top with diced tomatoes, chopped green onions, and cilantro.
  12. Serve with dollops of sour cream and guacamole on the side or on top.

Notes

[‘Line the sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.’, ‘Spread chips in a single layer to keep them crispy and avoid sogginess.’, ‘Add fresh toppings like tomatoes and cilantro after baking to maintain freshness and crunch.’, ‘Drain excess grease from cooked beef to prevent soggy chips.’, ‘Adjust jalapeño quantity or remove seeds to control spice level.’, ‘Use room temperature ingredients for even melting.’, ‘If cheese browns too quickly, loosely cover with foil for the last few minutes of baking.’, ‘Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheated in the oven to maintain crispiness.’]
