Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
-
Step 2.
Heat a 10-inch oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped bacon and cook until it starts to crisp and the fat renders, about 5 minutes.
-
Step 3.
Add the sliced red onion and sliced porcini mushrooms to the skillet. Cook until the onions are soft and the mushrooms have released their juices, 5 to 7 minutes, adding a splash of high-heat oil if the pan seems dry.
-
Step 4.
Stir in the minced garlic and red pepper flakes and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
-
Step 5.
Add the baby spinach a large handful at a time, stirring until wilted, about 4 minutes. Season with truffle or kosher salt and black pepper to taste. Transfer the mushroom-spinach mixture to a plate.
-
Step 6.
Spread one-quarter of the tortilla chips in the skillet. Sprinkle with one-quarter of the shredded cheese and one-quarter of the mushroom mixture. Repeat the layers three more times, using the remaining chips, cheese, and mushroom mixture.
-
Step 7.
Bake the skillet nachos in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted, about 10 minutes. Serve immediately with crème fraîche for dipping.
