pulled chicken nachos

These easy and healthy Shredded Chicken Nachos are a super easy weeknight meal.  They take less than 40 minutes from start to finish and use a sheet pan for easy clean-up. 

Shredded Chicken Nachos

tsp sea salt

tsp cumin

tsp pepper

onion powder

garlic powder

tsp chipotle chile powder (or cayenne)

boneless, skinless chicken breasts

olive oil

5-oz. bags grain-free or whole wheat tortilla chips

corn kernels, (thawed if frozen)

jack cheese, (grated)

5.57-oz. can sliced black olives, (drained)

green onions, (sliced)

full fat plain greek yogurt yogurt

lime juice (or milk of choice)

green onions

red onion

jalapeño

avocado

yogurt

chopped cilantro

salsa

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper, then set aside.

In a small mixing bowl, add the spices for the chicken (sea salt, cumin, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and chipotle chile powder), and stir until mixed well.  Season the chicken breast until evenly coated.

Heat olive oil over medium-high heat in a skillet.  Add the seasoned chicken and cook 4-6 minutes per side, until golden-brown and chicken is cooked through.  Then, remove from heat and lay on cutting board.

Using two forks, shred apart the chicken by holding the chicken with one fork and pulling away the chicken with the other fork.  Repeat with remaining chicken.   Alternatively, you could chop the chicken into small cubes or use a blender (see how here).

Spread a thick layering of tortilla chips over the sheet pan or a large casserole dish.

Over the tortilla chips, spread the beans evenly, followed by the corn, sliced olives, sliced green onions, and cheese.

Place nachos into the oven, uncovered, for 12-15 minutes or until the cheese is well-melted and the nachos are heated through.

While the nachos are in the oven, prepare the greek yogurt drizzle by whisking together the greek yogurt with the lime juice.

Remove the nachos and allow to cool to the touch.  Top with optional toppings and the greek yogurt lime drizzle.
