Ingredients
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 1 boneless skinless chicken breast or thigh
- 1 tortilla chips I like the scoop shape because they hold more!
- 1 cup cheddar cheese or monterey jack cheese, shredded
- 1 refried beans canned
- optional toppings include Diced onion, sliced green onion, sliced black olives, jalapenos (fresh or pickled)
- garnishes include shredded lettuce, diced tomato, diced avocado, sour cream or Mexican Creme
Instructions
- Dice chicken into small bite size pieces.
- Over high heat, quickly brown chicken on one side and then flip over. Depending on the size of your pieces this should take 5 minutes, or so.
- Spread tortilla chips on a large rimmed baking sheet.
- Grate cheese and prepare any additional toppings.
- Place beans in a microwaveable dish. Microwave on high for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes.
- Start broiler on high.
- Add dollops of beans to the top of the tortilla chips.
- Top with chicken and any other toppings you are using.
- Add grated cheese to the top. Broil about 2 to 3 minutes, watching carefully!
- Garnish and serve immediately.
