Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees F).
step 2
In a large bowl, toss the Russet Potatoes (2) with the Vegetable Oil (1/2 cup) and add McCormick® Taco Seasoning Mix (1 packet) and Cayenne Pepper (1 tsp). Make sure the seasoning is evenly spread on all the potatoes to ensure the best flavor.
step 3
Place potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet and cook in the oven for 30-40 minutes. Mix at the halfway mark so they can crisp evenly. They are finished when golden brown and crispy.
step 4
In a microwave, warm the Nacho Cheese (1 cup) for 30 seconds or until it becomes a liquid consistency. It should flow and be not too thick.
step 5
Spread the nacho cheese evenly on the potatoes. Add the Sour Cream (1/2 cup) on top of the nacho cheese.
step 6
Serve with Scallions (2 stalks) and Fresh Cilantro (2 Tbsp).
step 6 Serve with Scallions (2 stalks) and Fresh Cilantro (2 Tbsp).
