Description
These Reuben-Topped Irish Nachos are a crispy, cheesy, and flavor-packed twist on traditional nachos. Instead of tortilla chips, thinly sliced potatoes are baked until golden, then loaded with melted Swiss cheese, savory corned beef, tangy sauerkraut, and a drizzle of creamy Thousand Island dressing. Perfect for St. Patrick’s Day or as a unique game-day snack!
Ingredients
- 3 large russet potatoes, thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 1/2 cups shredded Swiss cheese

Instructions
-
Prep the Potatoes:
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. -
Bake the Potato Slices:
Toss the thinly sliced potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Arrange them in a single layer on the baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy. -
Add Cheese & Corned Beef:
Sprinkle shredded Swiss cheese evenly over the crispy potatoes. Top with chopped corned beef. Return to the oven and bake for another 5 minutes, until the cheese is melted. -
Add Sauerkraut & Dressing:
Remove from the oven and sprinkle the sauerkraut over the nachos. Drizzle with Thousand Island dressing.
-
Garnish & Serve:
Sprinkle with fresh parsley and sliced green onions (if using). Serve immediately while warm.
Notes
- Swap Swiss cheese with provolone or mozzarella if preferred.
- Make it extra crispy by broiling for the last 2 minutes.
- Serve with extra Thousand Island dressing for dipping.
