Notes
- If you don't have any leftover chicken to make this with, then you can either buy a rotisserie chicken, or grill chicken breasts and shred them. But we would definitely recommend making our slow cooker chicken fajitas.
- It's important for the nachos to all be in a single layer on the baking tray, so everything cooks evenly.
- You can make these a little less spicy by removing the seeds from the jalapenoes.
- You can use cheddar or montary jack cheese to make these. Basically, any cheese that melts well.
- The nutritional information for this recipe will change if you cook chicken from fresh to make the nachos.
