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.

RESTAURANT-STYLE CHICKEN NACHOS



Restaurant-Style Chicken Nachos image

Refried beans or black beans may be added into the chicken mixture if desired, also, if you are concerned about soggy chips you might want to pre-bake them in the oven for 5-7 minutes insure crispiness, though I have no trouble with the blue tortillas. If you like spicy throw on some sliced jalapeño rings with the tomatoes or add some finely chopped jalapeño into the chicken mixture...you will *love* this! :)
