My Irish neighbor brought these to the potluck and the pan was licked clean in minutes. It is so easy with just 4 ingredients.

These oven baked 4-ingredients Irish nachos are the kind of potluck dish that disappears before you can even set the pan down. Instead of tortilla chips, thinly sliced potatoes form the base—an idea often credited to Irish pubs in the U.S. that wanted something heartier and more familiar to potato-loving crowds.

Sheet pan Irish nachos fresh from the oven

Here, we keep it wonderfully simple: potatoes, sharp cheddar, bacon, and green onions. Everything bakes on one foil-lined sheet pan, giving you crispy edges, gooey cheese, and smoky bacon in under an hour with almost no cleanup.

Serve these Irish nachos straight from the sheet pan while they’re still hot and the cheese is stretchy. They pair well with cold beer, hard cider, or a simple sparkling water with lime.
