Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Arrange the tortilla chips in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring even coverage. (3 minutes)

03

Step

Generously spread the refried beans over the chips, creating a creamy base. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Scatter the diced chicken evenly over the refried beans, followed by the jalapeño slices. (3 minutes)

05

Step

Top with a generous layer of shredded Cheddar cheese, ensuring all ingredients are nicely covered. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden brown, approximately 6-8 minutes. (8 minutes)

07

Step

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with your favorite toppings such as sour cream, guacamole, or pico de gallo.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of taco seasoning to the chicken before layering it on the chips.
Feel free to customize these nachos with your favorite toppings! Black olives, diced tomatoes, green onions, or a drizzle of hot sauce would all be fantastic additions.
If you prefer a spicier kick, use pepper jack cheese instead of cheddar, or add a dash of cayenne pepper to the refried beans.
To prevent soggy nachos, avoid overcrowding the baking sheet and bake in batches if necessary. Serve immediately for the best texture.
