Christian nachos

Sheet-pan nachos in layers. Strain the beans really, really well. The wets go on top so they dry out instead of soaking through.

The rule
Strain the beans

Build it in order on a sheet pan:

  1. A layer of chips.
  2. A layer of black beans, strained really, really well.
  3. A layer of browned ground beef.
  4. Jalapeños, onions, and tomatoes. These are the wets. They go on top so they dry out while it cooks.
  5. Cheese over everything.

Bake at 400 to 425°F for a single layer. If you stacked more wets than that and don’t want them to dry out, go lower and slower.

Out of the oven: sour cream and a little cilantro. A little.
