Loaded Chicken Nachos

Yum

These Loaded Chicken Nachos can be made for an appetizer or a meal. I prefer the latter, because I mean who doesn’t want a whole plate full of nachos loaded to the max with toppings!

Loaded Chicken Nachos

Ok you guys, it’s fall, it’s football season, and it’s time to make Nachos!!! Well truth is I don’t watch football. Ok I’ll make the nachos and you can watch football!

So the recommended serving size is 4-6. But it really depends on how you want to serve this, as an appetizer or a meal, or if you’re like me you may want to just scarf this whole pan of nacho goodness in one sitting.

However I don’t recommend the latter, belly ache! I couldn’t help it, these nachos are soooo addicting! Don’t judge.

These Chicken Nachos are super easy to whip up too. Just simply fry up the chicken, scallions, garlic, and seasonings in a pan.

Then layer everything on a baking sheet and throw it in the oven to bake for about 10 minutes.

Make sure and put a sheet of parchment paper down first on the baking sheet. That way clean up is a breeze. Don’t you just love easy clean up after meals!

You can tweak any of these ingredients to your liking. Make it more spicy by adding some jalapeños, or top it with some homemade guacamole, or salsa.

I made mine kid friendly, so very light on the spice, since my 12 year old son would be eating this with me. So no, I did not eat the whole pan of nachos by myself, but let’s just say between the 2 of us we polished it off in one night.
