Method

Preparation

1

Prepare Chicken and Veggies

In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced chicken breast and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Add the sliced bell pepper and onion, sautéing for another 3-4 minutes until they are softened. Sprinkle the fajita seasoning over the mixture and stir until well coated. Remove from heat.

Assembling Nachos

2

Layer the Nachos

On a large serving plate, spread the tortilla chips evenly. Top the chips with the cooked chicken and veggie mixture, spreading it out evenly.

3

Add Cheese

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese generously over the top of the chicken and veggies.

4

Melt the Cheese

Place the assembled nachos under a broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.

Garnish and Serve

Once the cheese is melted, remove the nachos from the oven. Top with sour cream, sliced jalapeños, and chopped cilantro. Serve immediately while warm.
