Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- How to store and reheat the left-over nachos?
The nachos’ chilly toppings should be removed. Remove the blue cheese, cilantro, and avocado. If you add sour cream or shredded lettuce to the nachos, you should also take them out in an airtight container, and store them.
As much as possible, take out the chicken, onions, tomatoes, olives, and jalapenos and store them in a different airtight container. Put the tortilla chips with cheese in a ziplock bag in a single layer. To make the bag simpler to handle, I like to place them on a paper plate.
Set the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to reheat.
On the baking sheet, arrange the tortilla chips first, then the chicken, onions, tomatoes, olives, and jalapenos. To make the nachos as cheesy as possible, add more cheese.
5 to 10 minutes of baking. Remove from oven and garnish with cold ingredients like cilantro, avocado, and blue cheese. Enjoy!
- What goes first in nachos?
The tortilla chips should always be placed on top of the nachos. I advise putting cheese after your layer of tortilla chips before adding the meat and other toppings. This provides something for the other toppings to melt.
- How long do to keep the nachos in the oven?
Bake your nachos for 5 to 10 minutes in the oven at 220 degrees Celcius.
