Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 bag of gluten-free tortilla chips
  • 2 – 3 cups cooked & shredded chicken (or protein of choice)
  • 2 – 3 tablespoons taco seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 jar queso of choice

Optional Toppings : avocado, jalapeños, sour cream, Mexican cheese, green onion


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with avocado/coconut oil spray.
  2. Warm the Chicken : In a skillet, heat olive oil and toss in shredded chicken and taco seasoning. Sauté for a few minutes until warmed through and tossed to evenly coat chicken with seasoning.
  3. Build Your Nachos : Spread tortilla chips in an even layer on the sheet pan. Top with warm seasoned chicken, black beans, queso, onions, and olives.
  4. Bake for 8 – 10 minutes, or until everything is hot and the edges of the chips start to lightly brown.
  5. Top and Serve : Drizzle with salsa and any other toppings you love. Serve hot!

Notes

  • Use leftover protein to save time.
  • Layer chips evenly to avoid soggyness.
  • Serve hot for best texture.
