Preheat oven to 400°F. Season shredded chicken with cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper.

Spread half the chips in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Scatter half the beans, corn, chicken, and cheese over the chips. Add a second layer of chips and repeat with remaining beans, corn, chicken, and cheese. Layering ensures every chip gets toppings.

Scatter jalapeños over the top. Bake at 400°F for 8–10 minutes until the cheese is fully melted and bubbling, and the edges of the chips are deeply golden and crispy.

Remove from oven and immediately top with spoonfuls of salsa, sour cream, guacamole, pico de gallo, and fresh cilantro. Serve directly on the baking sheet for the full experience. Nachos must be eaten immediately — they become soggy within minutes.
