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

Units Scale
  • 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
  • 1 cup cooked corned beef, chopped
  • 3/4 cup sauerkraut, drained
  • 1/4 cup Thousand Island dressing
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

 

  • 1/4 cup sliced green onions (optional)

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.
