Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1.5 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
  • 0.5 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 0.5 cup Heavy Cream
  • 0.25 cup 2% Milk
  • 0.25 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 0.125 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes (or more to taste)
  • 0.25 cup Shredded Parmesan Cheese
  • 1 bag Tortilla Chips Your choice of brand
  • 1 cup Favorite Pizza Toppings (e.g., pepperoni, olives, bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, sausage)
  • 1 cup Additional Cheese (mozzarella or cheddar, shredded)

Instructions

  • Step 1: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter and olive oil together. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Be careful not to let it brown!
  • Step 2: Pour in the heavy cream and 2% milk, stirring to combine. Add the salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Keep stirring until the mixture is well combined and slightly thickened, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the shredded Parmesan cheese until creamy and smooth.
  • Step 3: On a large baking sheet or oven-safe platter, spread a generous layer of tortilla chips. Drizzle the rich creamy garlic sauce over the chips, ensuring to cover them generously.
  • Step 4: Scatter your favorite pizza toppings evenly over the nachos. Whether it’s pepperoni, olives, or sautéed veggies, make it colorful and delicious! Top with additional shredded cheese for that melty finish.
  • Step 5: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the assembled nachos in the oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and melted. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning!
  • Step 6: Once they’re out of the oven, let your Pizza Nachos cool for a moment. Serve them immediately, garnished with fresh herbs or a sprinkle of extra red pepper flakes if desired. Dig in and enjoy this fusion treat!
