Ingredients

• 2 medium Russet potatoes
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons Sliced jalapeños (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh cilantro
• 0.25 cup Sour cream
• 0.25 cup Salsa
• 2 tablespoons Green onions, sliced

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.

Step 2

Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Slice them into thin, even rounds around 1/8-inch thick.

Step 3

Place the potato slices in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt, ground black pepper, and smoked paprika. Toss to coat all the slices evenly.

Step 4

Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure none of them overlap for even cooking.

Step 5

Bake the potato slices in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Flip each slice over and bake for another 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

Step 6

Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the potato slices. Add sliced jalapeños if using.

Step 7

Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 8

Carefully transfer the nacho potato slices to a serving plate. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro and green onions.

Step 9

Serve immediately with sour cream and salsa on the side for dipping.
