Greek Chicken Nachos
Report
These Greek Chicken Nachos could not be any easier to make and could be a great party appetizer or main meal. Loaded with rotisserie chicken, a deconstructed Greek salad and lots of cheese! These are made with toasted whole wheat pita chips and are fantastic. Inspired by a Cooking Light article by Callie Nash.

Ingredients
- 4 (6-in.) whole wheat pitas
- 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 1/4 tsp salt , divided
- 1/4 tsp black pepper , divided
- 1/4 tsp ground oregano , or 1 tsp fresh
- 1 cup grape tomatoes , halved lengthwise
- 1 cup diced English cucumber
- 10 pitted kalamata olives , halved lengthwise
- 2 skinless , boneless rotisserie chicken breast, shredded (about 2 cups) or poached (See Note 3)
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese , shredded
- 1/2 cup feta cheese , crumbled
- 2 tbsp fresh oregano , leaves only
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. If poaching your own chicken instead of using rotisserie chicken do that step first as mentioned in Note 3 below.
- Cut each pita round in half, then cut each pita half into 4 wedges. Divide the 32 pita chips on 2 large baking sheets and spray with cooking spray. Sprinkle kosher salt, black pepper and ground oregano (See Note 1) on top of all. Bake for 5-6 minutes or until browned. Cool 10 minutes.
- While pita is toasting in oven whisk together olive oil, vinegar, kosher salt, pepper and ground oregano (See Note 2) in a medium bowl. Add the tomatoes, cucumber, and olives, tossing to coat all. Set aside.
- Arrange pita chips all on one baking sheet so they overlap. Top with shredded chicken, mozzarella, and feta cheese. Bake another 3 minutes or until cheese melts. Top with salad mixture and fresh oregano. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Do this in 2 batches so pita bakes and doesn’t steam. We want these crispy!
- Either use ground oregano or fresh.
- In a medium saucepan add chicken and cover with cold water. Add juice of half a lemon and a pinch of ground oregano. Bring to a boil covered. Turn off heat and allow to poach for 20-30 minutes depending on how thick the chicken is. Remove from poaching water and check if no longer pink on inside, then shred.
