Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and slice them into ¼-inch rounds.

Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden brown and crispy.
Remove from oven, layer with shredded cheese and jalapeños, then return to oven.
Bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let cool slightly, then top with sour cream, green onions, and salsa before serving.
