Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 bag tortilla chips
  • 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese grated
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 Tbsp. unsalted butter
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp. all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup pickled jalapeño peppers
  • 1/2 cup pico de gallo
  • sour cream garnish, optional
  • cilantro garnish, optional

Chicken Seasoning

  • 1 1/2 tsp. chili powder
  • 3/4 tsp. cumin
  • 3/4 tsp. paprika
  • 3/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp. onion powder

Instructions
 

  • Coat the chicken in the dry seasonings. Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken until browned and completely cooked on the inside, about 7 minutes per side. Remove onto a cutting board.
  • Shred chicken with forks. Set aside.
  • Make the cheese sauce: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook until bubbling, about 1 minute. Pour in the milk. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and stir in the grated cheese. Stir until melted.
  • Arrange the tortilla chips on a serving platter. Pile the warm chicken onto the chips. Pour the cheese sauce over top. Garnish with pico de gallo, sour cream, pickled jalapeños and cilantro.
