  • 3Add the canned tomatoes and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, simmer, stirring occasionally for 5 minutes, or until reduced slightly.
  • 4Transfer the beef mixture to a bowl.
  • 5Spread the refried beans over the base of the skillet and top with the beef mixture.
  • 6Sprinkle with the jalapeños, two-thirds of the tomatoes and about two-thirds of the cheese.
  • 7Insert the wire rack into position 6. Select Phase Cook for P1 and set the oven to Roast, Super Convection, 400°F, for 6 minutes. Press Confirm for P2 and set the oven to Broil, High, for 3 minutes and press Start to preheat.
  • 8Once preheated, place the skillet in the oven and cook for 6 minutes in P1. The oven will automatically switch to P2. Cook until the cheese has melted.
  • 9Meanwhile, make the guacamole. Place the avocados in a large bowl and mash until almost smooth. Add the lime juice and salt.
  • 10Top the nachos with a layer of guacamole followed with a layer of sour cream.
  • 11Top with a layer of tortilla chips and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
  • 12Return the skillet to the oven. Select Broil, Medium, for 3 minutes and press Start. Broil until the cheese has melted and the tortilla chips are lightly browned.
  • 13Serve sprinkled with the remaining tomatoes and cilantro.
    Tip: The fat content of tortilla chips varies from brand to brand which can affect the broiling time. Keep a close eye when broiling to avoid overbrowning.
