CHICKEN NACHOS



Chicken Nachos image

Super-simple but totally killer nachos! These are to die for with some guacamole, sour cream and salsa. If it's too spicy for you, just leave out the cayenne.

Provided by Michelle

Categories     Appetizers and Snacks     Cheese     Nachos Recipes

Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - chopped
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
1 (12 ounce) package corn tortilla chips, or as needed
1 (8 ounce) package shredded Mexican-style cheese blend
1 (7 ounce) can diced green chilies, drained

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, stir together the chicken, vegetable oil, and cayenne pepper. Let stand for 15 minutes, or longer if desired.

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons taco seasoning
2 tablespoons chili powder
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/4 cup olive oil
8 ounces tomato sauce
A few dashes hot sauce
1 large bag tortilla chips
3 cups grated Cheddar-Jack (approximately -- you may need more or less)
1/4 cup jarred jalapeno slices
1/4 cup chopped pitted black olives
3 tomatoes, finely chopped
3 green onions, green and white parts, finely chopped
1/4 cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Sprinkle the taco seasoning and chili powder all over the chicken breasts.
  • Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and saute on both sides until browned, about 5 minutes per side, then remove from the skillet and set aside. To the skillet, add the tomato sauce, hot sauce and 2 cups hot water and bring to a gentle boil.
  • Shred the chicken with 2 forks, then return the shredded chicken to the liquid and simmer on low until everything is hot and bubbly.
  • Assemble the nachos in 2 ways: Sprinkle a layer of tortilla chips onto 2 ovenproof plates or baking dishes. Sprinkle both with cheese and then a layer of chicken; repeat twice more with each layer getting smaller in circumference. Finish with an extra sprinkling of cheese. Bake just until the cheese melts, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Serve one dish as is. On the other, layer on the jalapenos, black olives, tomatoes, green onions and sour cream.
