In a separate pan, make the nacho sauce by melting olive oil and butter, then adding chopped onion and red bell pepper until softened.

Stir in chopped pickled jalapenos, flour, and cook for a minute before gradually adding milk and pickled jalapeno juice, stirring until thickened.

Add grated cheddar cheese to the sauce and stir until melted and smooth.
