Servings: 8
Ingredients
- Tortilla chips about 10 cups
- 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
- 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
- 1 tablespoon water
- 8 ounces sharp cheddar cheese grated
- 8 ounces pepper jack cheese grated
- 1 can black beans 15 ounce, drained and rinsed
- Diced tomato green onions, black olives, and jalapenos
- Ranch dressing
- Sabra Classic or Spicy Guacamole
- Salsa
Instructions
- In a large cast iron skillet (or other oven proof skillet) or a large rimmed baking sheet, spread tortilla chips in an even layer over the bottom. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- Add the taco seasoning and water to your cooked shredded chicken and stir to combine. Add half of the shredded cheese, half of the chicken, half of the beans to the chips in the skillet. Add a second layer of chips to the skillet and top with the remaining cheese, chicken, and beans.
- Place the skillet in the hot oven to 10-15 minutes until the cheese is melted. Remove the skillet from the oven and top with chopped tomato, green onions, black olives, and jalapenos. Serve with Sabra Greek Yogurt Farmer's Ranch, Sabra Guacamole, and salsa.
Notes
- Cook and shred the chicken in advance. Toss it with taco seasoning and a bit of water for extra flavor.
- Ensure even layers of chips, cheese, and toppings to achieve the perfect balance in every bite. This helps retain heat and gives the nachos a crispier texture. A large rimmed baking sheet works well too.
- Mix different cheeses like cheddar, Monterey Jack, and pepper jack for a richer flavor.
- Fresh toppings like tomatoes, green onions, and jalapeños should be added after baking to maintain their freshness and crunch.
- Offer a variety of toppings and dips like guacamole, sour cream, and salsa on the side so guests can personalize their nachos.
