Beef Lasagna Nachos

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Beef Lasagna Nachos.

1. Step 1

   Start by bringing a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil.

2. Step 2

   Once boiling, gently add the lasagna noodles, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

3. Step 3

   Cook them until they’re tender yet still have a bit of bite, which should take about 8 minutes.

4. Step 4

   After cooking, drain the noodles and pat them dry with paper towels.

5. Step 5

   Feel free to get creative and cut each noodle into fun shapes that suit your dish.

6. Step 6

   Next, grab a Dutch oven and pour in enough vegetable oil to reach a depth of about 3 inches.

7. Step 7

   Heat the oil over high heat until it reaches a sizzling 360°F (182°C).

8. Step 8

   Carefully add 8 to 10 pieces of your cut pasta, one at a time, to avoid any sticking.

9. Step 9

   Fry them gently, giving them a little tap under the oil and stirring occasionally, until they turn a beautiful golden brown and crispy, which should take around 2 to 3 minutes.

10. Step 10

    Once they’re perfectly fried, use a spider or tongs to remove them and place them on a paper towel-lined tray.

11. Step 11

    A sprinkle of salt will enhance their flavor.

12. Step 12

    Repeat this process with the remaining pasta, ensuring the oil returns to 360°F (182°C) before each batch.

13. Step 13

    Now, let’s get the oven ready.

14. Step 14

    Position an oven rack in the top third and preheat your broiler.

15. Step 15

    Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup.

16. Step 16

    In a medium nonstick skillet, heat some olive oil over medium-high heat.

17. Step 17

    Add in the ground sirloin and cook, stirring occasionally, until it’s nicely browned, which should take about 3 minutes.

18. Step 18

    Toss in the chopped garlic and Italian seasoning, cooking for another minute until your kitchen is filled with a delightful aroma.

19. Step 19

    Stir in the marinara sauce and then remove the skillet from the heat.

20. Step 20

    Set this savory mixture aside for later.

21. Step 21

    In a small saucepan, melt some butter over medium heat.

22. Step 22

    Whisk in the flour and cook, stirring constantly, until it starts to bubble, which should take about 30 seconds.

23. Step 23

    Gradually whisk in the milk, continuing to stir until the mixture thickens slightly, around 2 to 3 minutes.

24. Step 24

    Once thickened, remove it from the heat and stir in the mozzarella, Parmesan, and a pinch of salt.

    Now it’s time to assemble your delicious creation.

26. Step 26

    On the prepared baking sheet, arrange the lasagna chips in a single layer.

    Add dollops of ricotta cheese for that extra creaminess.

29. Step 29

    Pop the baking sheet under the broiler in your preheated oven.

30. Step 30

    Keep an eye on it and broil until the ricotta is beautifully browned in spots, which should take about 2 minutes.
