Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly grease a rimmed 9 x 13 casserole dish with olive oil.
- Mix the salt, pepper and spices in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef. Cook, stirring and breaking up the meat, until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Drain well (this step is very important as to not make the pork rinds soggy!).
- Return the drained beef to the skillet. Lower the heat to medium and stir in the spice mixture. Cook, stirring, for about 2 more minutes. Remove from heat.
- Spread the pork rinds in a single layer on the prepared pan. Top with the cooked ground beef, then sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and jalapeños on top.
- Bake until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Top with chopped tomatoes, then serve immediately.
