Prepare yourself for this tasty dish! These nachos are crispy, savory, and fresh. I don't usually add corn to my nachos but it provided a sweet note that paired well with the tanginess of the green chilis. The cilantro brought a light addition to the dish, while the steak was hearty and satisfying. Overall, these are some tasty at home nachos.
