Step 1

Place a rack 6 to 8 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven to broil. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Step 2

Fill a Dutch oven or other heavy pot with oil to a depth of 1 inch. Heat the oil over medium-high heat to 350 F. Line a wire rack with paper towels, place it on a baking sheet and set nearby.

Step 3

Cut the tortillas in half. Carefully add a few tortilla pieces at a time to the oil and fry them, stirring gently, until they're golden and crispy, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon or tongs, transfer the chips to the prepared rack and lightly season them with salt. Repeat with the remaining tortillas pieces.

Step 4

Transfer the tortilla pieces to the foil-lined baking sheet and arrange them in a single layer. Top each piece with 1 tablespoon of the beans, 1 tablespoon of the cheese and a pinch of salt. Broil just until the cheese has melted, 2 to 3 minutes.

Step 5

Top each nacho with 1 or 2 pickled jalapeños and serve immediately.
