    How to Make Skillet Nachos With Spicy Salsa Verde

    I was thinking, with Tailgate Season right around the corner, I may add some black beans, double the whole chicken nacho recipe and serve it up as some good game day grub too!

    Or, how about this. I'll make the food, you bring the drinks and we can 'do Vegas' next weekend?

    Ingredients

    • 2 Cups Cooked Chicken left overs put to good use!
    • 5-6 Cups Tortilla Chips
    • ½ Cup Salsa Verde
    • 1 TSP Red Pepper Flakes
    • 1 Small Can Chopped Black Olives
    • 2 Cups Shredded Cheese I used Mexican Blend
    • 1-2 Small diced Tomatoes
    • Handful Chopped Cilantro
    • Handful Diced Green Onions
    tortilla chips, tomatoes, cheese, olives, green taco sauce, chicken and green onions

    Directions for How to Make Skillet Chicken Nachos With Spicy Salsa Verde

    Start by preheating the oven to 350 degrees F. Yep, we're popping that skillet right in the oven!

    While that's heating up, do all your dicing and chopping. My cast iron skillet is 9 inches so I needed the full 6 cups of tortilla chips to fill it. Toss yours in.

    In a medium saucepan, combine the chicken, red pepper, salsa verde. Just to mix it up and get warm. Pour that evenly over your tortilla chips.

    Add your black olives, tomatoes, green onions and cheese.

    Pop that right in the oven on the middle rack.

    Bake for about 20 minutes or until cheese is all bubbly and warm!

    Top with a couple bits of tomato and cilantro.

    Easy enough, right?

      I wouldn't mind trying out this recipe sometime! The only difference would be is that I'd substitute the chicken for mock meat. And those watermelon margaritas sound delish! 🙂
