Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 large bag Tortilla Chips (about 10 oz)
  • 1 cup Salsa Verde
  • 2 cups Cooked Chicken, shredded (use leftover chicken or rotisserie)
  • 2 cups Cheddar Cheese, shredded
  • 1 can (15 oz) Black Beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1/4 cup Jalapeños, sliced (fresh or pickled) Use according to your spice tolerance.
  • 1/4 cup Cilantro, chopped (for garnish) Drizzle sour cream for serving.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. On a large baking sheet, spread out tortilla chips evenly. Ensure they are not overlapping for maximum crispiness.
  3. Drizzle salsa verde over the chips, allowing it to soak in, then scatter shredded chicken evenly.
  4. Sprinkle cheddar cheese generously over the top.
  5. Distribute black beans and jalapeños on top for added flavor and texture.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Remove from the oven and drizzle sour cream on top. Garnish with fresh cilantro.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a 350°F oven for 5-7 minutes or microwave for 1-2 minutes. Avoid overloading nachos with too many toppings before baking to prevent sogginess.
