Nachoooooos

I basically just had a craving for queso, so I looked a recipe and made my own rendition of nachos. They were super yum and fattening, but maybe the pico makes up for it. I hope you enjoy!

Of course, my favorite chips for any mexican food.

Queso blanco 

Blackened chicken.

Pico de gallo.

My huge plate of nachos because I eat a lot. I always finish off my husband's plate when he is done.

Ingredients:

1 bag of tortilla chips

2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts 

6-8 ripe roma tomatoes, chopped

1/3 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped

1/3 sweet onion, chopped

2 jalapeños, seeded and diced

2 lbs Velveeta queso blanco

4 oz can diced green chilis 

1 cup milk

2 Tbs butter 

olive oil

salt and pepper

Directions:

• Pre-chop tomatoes, cilantro, onion, and jalapeños. Mix together in a bowl and season with salt; set aside.
• Heat up a skillet on high heat and a saucepan on low heat.
•  While heating, cut chicken breasts in half long-ways and season with salt and pepper. 
• Cut the Velveeta into cubes.
• Add a few tablespoons of olive oil to skillet and add chicken.
• Add Velveeta, green chilis, milk, and butter to saucepan. Stir frequently until melted and blended.
• Sear chicken on each side until crispy and cook for about ten minutes, or until cooked through.
• Shred chicken into small pieces.
• Assemble nachos with chips, queso, chicken, and pico. Enjoy!

(note: this makes about 8 servings of queso and pico, so you can double the chicken and chips for 8 servings. Otherwise this serves 4-5.)
