Ingredients
Chips
- 2 cups grated hard cheese, such as parmesan, aged gouda or asiago cheese
For the Filling
- 3 tsp avocado oil (separate)
- 1 green bell pepper (cleaned and diced)
- 1 red bell pepper (cleaned and diced)
- 2 cups diced leftover chicken (or store-bought rotisserie or sliced turkey from the deli)
- 4 tsp lime juice
- 1/4 tsp ground cumin
- 1/8 tsp fine kosher salt
- 1/8 tsp ground black pepper
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
For garnish on the nachos
- Guacamole
- Sour cream
- Sliced spicy jalapeno pepper
- Diced onions (finely chopped)
- Lime wedges or slices
Instructions
Step 1:
Place a piece of parchment paper on a rimmed baking sheet and set it aside.
Preheat your oven to 375 F
Step 2:
For the chips- Using a 2 1/2 inch jar lid as a guide, drop 1 tbsp of the cheese on the parchment paper and using your hands form them into a circle.
Space the circles about 2 inches from each other.
Step 3:
Bake the tortilla chips for about 5 minutes or until each tortilla chip is lightly browned and bubbly.
Wait for them to cool down and as they cool down they will crisp up.
Remove the chips from the parchment paper and place them on your serving platter.
Step 4:
For the filling- Over medium-high heat, pour 1 1/2 tsp of your avocado oil in a large skillet.
Continue by adding your bell peppers and saute for about 3 minutes or until the texture is crisp and tender.
When done, transfer to a small bowl.
Step 5:
Continue by combining your chicken, lime juice, cumin, salt, and pepper in a medium-sized bowl.
Step 6:
In a greased baking dish, layer peppers, half the chicken mixture, half of the cheddar cheese and continue until all done.
Transfer to the oven and bake for 10 minutes or until cheese has melted.
Step 7:
Transfer your nacho mixture from the baking dish to your nachos serving place using a spatula.
With a spoon, garnish your nachos with guacamole, sour cream, sliced jalapenos, finely chopped onion and lime wedges.
