Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fajita seasoning
- 3 pieces Bell peppers (red, yellow, green), sliced
- 1 large Onion, sliced
- 10 cups Tortilla chips
- 2 cups Shredded Mexican blend cheese
- 1 cup Black beans, drained and rinsed
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 cup Guacamole
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
- 1 whole Lime wedges
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and sprinkle 1 tablespoon of fajita seasoning evenly over them.
Cook the chicken for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C). Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the sliced bell peppers and onion, and sprinkle the remaining 1 tablespoon of fajita seasoning over them. Sauté until the vegetables are tender but still slightly crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
Spread the tortilla chips evenly across a large, oven-safe baking dish or sheet pan.
Layer the shredded cheese, black beans, sliced chicken, and sautéed vegetables over the tortilla chips.
Bake the nachos in the oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
Remove the nachos from the oven and let them cool slightly. Top with sour cream, guacamole, and freshly chopped cilantro, if desired.
Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for an extra zesty kick.
