Smoked Chicken Nachos
Loaded nachos with smoked chicken.
Jump to RecipeNachos with smoked chicken are a serious upgrade from regular nachos. The smoke flavor adds depth that takes this snack food to the next level. These disappear fast at any gathering.
Perfect for game day, casual parties, or any time you want an indulgent snack. Set up a nacho bar and let people customize their own portions.
Layer all the toppings - plenty of cheese, jalapeños, sour cream, salsa, guacamole. Fresh cilantro adds brightness. Pickled onions are a nice touch. Don't skimp on the toppings.
Use leftover smoked chicken or smoke some specifically for this. Any smoked chicken works. Black beans, corn, and other vegetables can bulk it up if desired.
The key is building layers - chips, toppings, chips, toppings - so every chip has stuff on it. Nobody wants a plain chip at the bottom. Use a sheet pan for best results and serve immediately while hot.
