Ingredients
There is no reason to be precise with nacho measurements. Use what you like! The amounts listed below will make a generous dinner-plate sized serving. Use a baking sheet and scale up if serving a crowd!
- 3-4 ounces tortilla chips 5-6 handfuls of chips
- 1 ½ cup pepper Jack cheese shredded
- ¾ cup + Kalua Pork chopped into bite size pieces (decrease salt in the recipe, 1 tsp kosher salt at the most, you can add more after cooking)
- 3-4 tablespoons drained and diced pepperoncini
- 2-3 strips bacon cooked and crumbled
- 2-3 tablespoons chopped red onion
- 2-3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
- ¼ cup sour cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350℉.
- Place a single layer of tortilla chips on an oven safe plate. Top with a heaping 3/4 cup cheese. Place pork over top and sprinkle with pepperoncini. Break up a handful of tortilla chips into large pieces and sprinkle on top. Add remaining cheese, top with crumbled bacon and onion. Bake in the oven until cheese is melted. Remove, and sprinkle on cilantro and dollops of sour cream. Serve immediately.
Notes
- All of the different elements in this recipe can add quite a bit of salt. I suggest using low-sodium bacon, and omitting the salt on the pork (or simply decrease it and salt afterward) to make sure your finished dish isn’t too salty.
