Ingredients

  • ½ store-bought roasted chicken
  • ½ cup BBQ sauce I prefer Sweet Baby Ray’s Honey Chipotle Sauce
  • ½ bag tortilla chips
  • ¼ Cup thinly sliced purple onion slices
  • ½ Cup shredded pepper Jack Cheese
  • ½ Cup three cheddar shredded cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven on broil. Using ½ of your store-bought roasted chicken, pick off and shred the meat from a breast, thigh and leg. Place in a microwave safe bowl and mix well with the BBQ sauce. Heat this mixture in the microwave on High Heat for 1 ½ minutes. Remove from the microwave and set aside.
  • On a sheet pan or on a large oven safe dish, spread out the tortilla chips. Sprinkle the BBQ Chicken mixture around over the top of the chips. Follow by sprinkling the onions and cheeses around as well.
  • Place in the oven under the broiler for about 2 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Garnish with Cilantro and/or green onion slices and Sour Cream.

Notes

Spice it up and substitute pork or beef for the chicken.
Use whatever toppings you like best!
