Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons safflower oil
1 small white onion, chopped
1 (15-ounce/425 g) can black beans, drained and rinsed
½ teaspoon ground cumin
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 ounces (340 g) tortilla chips
2 cups (250 g) shredded cooked chicken
1 ⅔ cups (10 ounces/284 g) shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1¾ cups (16 ounces/454 g) salsa, store-bought or salsa verde
1 avocado, pitted, peeled, and coarsely chopped
1 jalapeño, thinly sliced
Sour cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) with the rack in the center position. Heat the safflower oil in a 10-inch (25 cm) skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and sauté until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the black beans, cumin, and oregano. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat.
  • Arrange one-third of the tortilla chips on a baking sheet or oven-safe platter. Top with one-third each of the black beans, chicken, cheese, and salsa. Repeat this layering twice more.
  • Transfer to the oven and bake until the cheese is melted throughout, 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and top with the avocado, jalapeño, and dollops of sour cream. Serve immediately.

These nachos were a disaster! The chicken was tough, the beans were mushy, and the cheese was rubbery. I will not be making these again.

I thought the nachos were okay, but I wasn't blown away. I think I prefer traditional nachos with just cheese and salsa.

The nachos were good, but I found the chicken to be a bit dry. I think next time I'll marinate it before cooking.

These nachos were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. I think next time I'll use a milder salsa.

I wasn't sure how I would feel about the combination of chicken and black beans, but I was pleasantly surprised! The flavors worked really well together.

These nachos were easy to make and turned out great! I used rotisserie chicken and canned black beans, which made it a quick and easy meal.

I made these nachos for dinner last night and they were delicious! The chicken was tender and flavorful, and the black beans added a nice smoky flavor. The cheese was melted and gooey, and the avocado and sour cream were the perfect finishing touches
