Spicy charred beef thinly sliced with caramelized onions make the perfect topping for nachos. I find the perfect cut of meat is London broil, also called top round. It is a cheap cut of meat but cooked quickly and thinly sliced it stays juicy and tender. When looking for a cut of beef, try to find one as uniform as possible. Odd sizes will cook at different rates and not give you a consistent cook.
These nachos are perfect for your next game night, movie date or whenever you have a craving for nachos!
Some of my favorite toppings include: jalapeños, queso cheese, salsa and guac!

In a small bowl mix together the salt, onion powder, garlic powder, chilli powder, cumin and pepper. Sprinkle heavily on both sides of the steak and press down.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add a tablespoon of oil and lay in the beef. Sear for 3 minutes, add a tablespoon of butter and flip the beef over. Cook for another 3 minutes or until done to your liking. I think a nice medium-rare works best.
Once cooked remove to a cutting board to rest for 5 minutes.
Turn the heat to medium and add another tablespoon of butter to the skillet and add sliced onions. Cook for 5 minutes or until caramelized and tender.
After resting for 5 minutes thinly slice the beef against the grain. Place the beef and onions on top of nachos and pour over the resting juices along with sides of your juice.
