- cup water

- 2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
- 2 teaspoons white sugar
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 (14 ounce) package classic coleslaw mix (such as Dole)
- small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 (12 ounce) bag tortilla chips
- 3 cups cooked pulled pork
- 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
Directions
Step 1: In a saucepan, combine water, vinegar, Sriracha, sugar, oregano, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat, stir well, and let cool for 10 minutes.
Step 2: In a large bowl, combine the coleslaw mix and thinly sliced red onion. Pour the cooled Sriracha mixture over the top and stir until well combined. Set aside while you prepare the nachos.
Step 3: Position an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the broiler on low setting.
Step 4: Spread the tortilla chips in a single layer on a baking sheet. Evenly scatter the pulled pork on top of the chips, followed by a generous amount of shredded Cheddar cheese.
Step 5: Broil the nachos in the preheated oven for about 6 minutes, or until the cheese has fully melted and is bubbly.
Step 6: Remove the nachos from the oven and top them with the prepared Sriracha slaw. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Cook's Note
If you are using pulled pork that isn't smoked, consider mixing it with a bit of barbecue sauce to impart that smoky flavor. Alternatively, a few drops of liquid smoke can help achieve the same effect.
