This is my final recipe for the rotisserie chicken project. When I started the project, Rotisserie chicken nachos was the first recipe on my list. I had to include it. I make it so often that it would be unfair to leave it out of the project.

I just love nachos. This is the simplest way to put it. I don’t know what’s not to like. Corn chips are good. Cheese is good. Chicken is good. Top it with fresh and fragrant add-ons like cilantro, red onion, jalapeno and you have a fiesta at home anytime you want.

Nachos are pretty frequent guest in our apartment. I make it for friends to snack on and warm up the conversation. For Mexican food days. For soccer games. Or simply when I need the day off in the middle of the week.

We all have days during the week when you want to take a break, have a day-off or at least part of the day and have something special. This is what happened to me this Monday. I just couldn’t make myself to work. So I made a deal. I will do two things from a to-do list and will spend the rest of a day with nachos, beer, and soccer. So it happened.

It took me about 7 minutes to prep everything for nachos. 5 minutes to make homemade salsa. After 15 minutes both my husband and I were sitting with a glass of cold beer savoring colorful homemade nachos and salsa watching soccer. Barcelona vs. Roma. What a game!

Thinks about it. Most of the time you have corn chips in your kitchen pantry, and maybe some cheese. If you are lucky enough, you have the rest of ingredients.  If you don’t, head over to a grocery store, buy the rest of ingredients and make nachos to add some fiesta to your day!

All you need to do is layer all ingredients. Bake it to melt the cheese. Top it with your favs, and you have the easiest shredded chicken nachos to brighten the day.

This time I used hot sauce to make buffalo chicken nachos recipe. You can use your favorite BBQ sauce to make bbq chicken nachos. The cooking instruction is the same. So use whatever sauce you prefer or have on hand.

Also, I lightened up it a bit by removing cheese sauce to make healthy chicken nachos. Well, not healthy but healthy-ish since it is still loaded with cheese but without extra unnecessary calories from flour and milk. All you need is enough cheese to glue everything together. For that reason, cheese sauce is needless here.

Now you know how to make easy shredded chicken nachos at home. This is a quick and easy Mexican food you can serve for any occasion, at any time of the day to bring good vibes and mood to your party.

Happy Cooking!

Tips and Tricks for Rotisserie Chicken Nachos:

  1. I usually buy white corn chips because they are slightly healthier than yellow. My second choice is the blend of white and yellow.
  2. I stopped buying canned corn a VERY long time ago. The frozen tastes much better and it is convenient portion wise. Take how much you need and return the rest to a freezer.
  3. The best way to bring frozen corn back to life: Bring water to a full boil. Remove from heat. Add frozen corn. Wait for 3 minutes. Drain and enjoy. The simple but crucial process that helps corn retain the color and sweetness.
  4. I find making cheese sauce for nachos time consuming and unhealthy. I use plain shredded cheese to glue everything together. Works all the time.
  5. I recently discovered Louisiana’s Pure Crystal hot sauce and in love with it. It has only three plain ingredients, and it tastes a lot better than famous hot sauces. Highly recommend.
  6. You can substitute hot sauce for bbq or any other favorite sauce.
