• Stir in the fresh or canned chopped tomatoes with their juices and cook over high, stirring occasionally, until saucy, 2 to 3 minutes. Season to taste with salt.

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.
