Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound fresh hot pork sausage (casings removed), crumbled
4 scallions, white and green parts separated and chopped
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
2 cans (15 ounces each) pinto or black beans, rinsed and drained
3/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth or water
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
12 ounces large tortilla chips (restaurant style)
3 cups grated pepper Jack, sharp cheddar, or a combination
1/4 cup pickled jalapeno slices (optional)
Salsa and sour cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Add sausage and cook, breaking meat apart with a wooden spoon, until sausage is browned and the fat is rendered, about 5 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer sausage to paper towels to drain.
  • Add scallion whites and garlic to skillet; cook until fragrant and soft, about 20 seconds. Stir in beans and cook 1 minute. Add broth, chili powder, cumin, and salt. With a potato masher or the back of a wooden spoon, mash beans until chunky-smooth. Reduce heat to medium and cook until warmed through, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Spread half the tortilla chips in a large ovenproof platter or baking dish. Top with half the beans, half the sausage, half the cheese, and half the jalapenos (if using). Repeat with remaining ingredients. Bake until cheese melts and nachos are hot, about 5 minutes. Serve nachos topped with scallion greens, salsa, and sour cream.

I've made these nachos several times and they're always a crowd-pleaser. I love the combination of flavors and textures. The spicy sausage, creamy cheese, and crunchy tortilla chips are the perfect combination.

These nachos were easy to make and turned out great! I used ground turkey instead of sausage and they were still delicious. I would definitely make these again.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but these nachos were surprisingly mild. The cheese and beans helped to balance out the spice, and the overall flavor was really good.
