Lately, it’s been impossible to escape a certain viral nachos recipe making the rounds on TikTok. Basque Nachos—sometimes called Spanish nachos—fit perfectly into the world of simple, flavor-packed appetizers. Said to be inspired by acclaimed New York City restaurant Ernesto’s, which serves potato chips with jamón Ibérico, these aren't your average nachos. Instead of melted cheese and salsa, they highlight traditional Spanish toppings, delivering bold flavor in a quick, elevated form.

Ingredients Needed to Make Basque Nachos
'Basque Nachos' IngredientsNathan Hutsenpiller
To get started, you’ll need kettle-cooked potato chips (original flavor works best), shaved serrano ham, manchego cheese and a briny element like pickled peppers or Castelvetrano olives. From there, you can add any other ingredients you think would work, but for now, this is all you really need.

Start by adding shreds of serrano ham first—the heat from the chips will gently warm the ham, letting its flavor and a bit of grease seep into the chips. Next, sprinkle on grated manchego to taste, followed by your briny ingredient, like pickled peppers or Castelvetrano olives (I used both). Then layer on more chips and repeat the process one more time: more cheese, more peppers and more yumminess.

Getting Creative With Basque Nachos

I can also see a good dusting of lemon zest or a quick squeeze of lemon juice on top at the end as the easiest way to elevate the recipe—hardly any effort, but a burst of brightness in every bite. From there, you could add some chopped herbs like green onion or parsley, more cured meat like pancetta or even a few drizzles of chili crisp oil for a spicy kick.
