Loaded Cuban Style Chicken Nachos

Original Recipe by Taylor Celentano

Notes

I used an Instant Pot to cook the chicken, but feel free to cook yours in the oven at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes if you don't have an Instant Pot.

Loaded Cuban-Style Chicken Protein Nachos Recipe and Photos

Ingredients

  1. 3 bags Quest Chili-Lime Protein Chips
    3 bags Quest Loaded-Taco Protein Chips
  1. For the Loaded Chicken
    2 organic chicken breasts
    1/2 cup chicken broth
    1/2 cup Trader Joe's spicy taco sauce (or enchilada sauce)
    1 tablespoon Trader Joe's Cuban-style seasoning
  1. For the Toppings
    1 cup Mexican-blend shredded cheese
    1/2 cup chopped grape tomatoes
    1/4 cup chopped red onion
    1/2 cup canned corn
    1/8 cup chopped jalapeños
    2 small avocados
    1/4-1/2 cup cooked black beans
    Fresh cilantro
  1. For the "Sour Cream"
    1 cup greek yogurt
    1 tablespoon onion salt
    1/2 lemon (squeezed)
    Drizzle of olive oil

Directions

  1. Add the chicken broth, chicken breast, taco sauce, and seasonings to your Instant Pot. Seal and set it to pressure cook for eight minutes.
  2. Cover your baking sheet with parchment paper, and evenly lay out your chips. Cut up all your toppings and set aside.
  3. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Cover your chips evenly with your shredded cheese.
  4. Once the chicken is done, pressure release your Instant Pot, and then shred your chicken on a cutting board carefully using two forks. Put the chicken back into the sauce it cooked in, mix it around to recoat it, and evenly place it on top of your chips.
  5. Sprinkle all of your toppings — except for your avocado — evenly across your chips. Bake for 10 minutes or until your cheese is nice and melted.
  6. Mix together your "sour cream."
  7. Once you remove the nachos from the over, evenly distribute your avocado chunks, sprinkle on a little more cilantro, drizzle your "sour cream" mixture across the entire tray, and serve.
