Air Fryer Nachos: Quick and Cheesy Snack
Crispy and cheesy nachos ready in 12 minutes in the air fryer.
🥘 Ingredients
tortilla chips — 200 g (7 oz)
shredded cheese (cheddar or preferred) — 150 g (5.3 oz)
jalapeño, sliced — 1
Optional: diced tomatoes, corn, cilantro, black beans, cooked chicken — to taste
👨🍳 Steps
1If needed, line the air fryer basket with a small piece of perforated parchment paper or use a suitable insert. Drain wet toppings well before using.
2Spread tortilla chips in a light, even layer. Sprinkle cheese and toppings over chips. It's better to make two thin layers than one thick one.
3Air fry at 200°C (400°F) for 7 minutes until cheese melts. Watch closely in the last minute as chips can brown quickly.
4Serve nachos immediately. Add salsa, guacamole, sour cream, or fresh herbs only after baking.
