Loaded BBQ Chicken Nachos

A mountain of tortilla chips pilled high filled with sweet smokey barbecue chicken, lots of cheese and all of the fixings you can think of!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 Bag of Tortilla Chips
  • 2 BBQ Chicken Breasts, skinless & boneless
  • 2 cups shredded Colby Jack Cheese, or more if you’re like me
  • 1/3 cup Red Onion, diced
  • 1 Tomato, chopped
  • 8 oz. sliced Black Olives
  • 1/4 cup Green Onions, diced
  • BBQ Sauce more is needed for drizzling on the top
  • Drizzle Ranch dressing (optional)

Instructions

  1. Season and cook your chicken breasts. I season mine with garlic salt, black pepper, paprika, olive oil, and worchestshire sauce. Once the chicken is cooked though place to the side and allow to rest a few minutes.
  2. Chop up chicken breasts into bite sized pieces and combine with favorite 1/2 cup barbecue sauce.
  3. It’s time to layer the nachos. I like to get fill the nachos in layers so that there is chicken and cheese and onions and olives in every bite. Place a handful of chips as the first layer, then add some of the barbecue chicken and onions, and sprinkle with cheese. Depending on size of pan it will depend on how many layers you can make. I usually just make two.
  4. For the second layer, add more chips, then this time add cheese, barbecue chicken, and more cheese. Place in a 350 degree oven to cook for 5-10 mins or until cheese is melted.
  5. Once cheese is melted remove from oven then add the chopped tomatoes, red onion, tomato, black olives, and green onions. Lightly drizzle more barbecue sauce and ranch dressing…Serve hot and ENJOY!
