Tips:
- Choose the right chicken. For shredded chicken, use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs. Dark meat chicken will have a more flavorful result, while white meat chicken will be leaner.
- Cook the chicken properly. Chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. You can cook the chicken in a slow cooker, Instant Pot, or on the stovetop.
- Shred the chicken. Once the chicken is cooked, shred it using two forks or a meat shredder.
- Make your own barbecue sauce. You can use a store-bought barbecue sauce, but making your own is easy and delicious. There are many different recipes available online.
- Use fresh toppings. Fresh toppings will make your nachos more flavorful and appealing. Some good options include shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced jalapeños, and sour cream.
- Serve the nachos immediately. Nachos are best served immediately after they are made, while the chips are still crispy.
