Chicken Nachos
Chicken nachos are a layered Tex-Mex dish featuring tortilla chips topped with seasoned shredded chicken, melted cheese, and traditional garnishes like salsa, beans, or jalapeños. This customizable preparation balances protein from the chicken with carbohydrates from the chips, though calorie density and sodium content can vary significantly based on cheese quantity and added toppings. Typically served as a shareable appetizer or casual meal, versions using baked chips and reduced-fat cheese offer a lighter alternative while maintaining the dish's signature combination of textures and flavors.
