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?
