Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 pound (450g) pulled pork
  • 1 cup barbecue sauce
  • 8 ounces (225g) tortilla chips
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Monterey Jack)
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup diced jalapeños
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • Optional toppings: sour cream, guacamole, sliced green onions, red onion, lime, etc

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a saucepan over medium heat, warm the pulled pork and barbecue sauce until heated through, about 5 minutes.
  3. Arrange a single layer of tortilla chips on a baking sheet or oven-safe dish.
  4. Spoon half of the pulled pork mixture evenly over the chips, then sprinkle half of the shredded cheese on top.
  5. Repeat the layers with the remaining chips, pulled pork, and cheese.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with diced tomatoes, jalapeños, and fresh cilantro.
  8. Serve the barbecue pulled pork nachos hot, garnished with optional toppings like sour cream, guacamole, and sliced green onions.

Notes

Feel free to add additional toppings such as black beans, diced onions, avocado, or shredded lettuce for added texture and freshness. If you prefer a heartier kick, just add more jalapeños or a drizzle of hot sauce. Serve the nachos immediately after baking to ensure they’re crispy and cheesy. Enjoy!
