Ingredients

  • FOR THE SPICES:
  • 1 Tablespoon Chili Powder
  • 1 Tablespoon Paprika
  • 2 Tablespoons Cumin
  • 2 Tablespoons Salt
  • 1 Tablespoon Cayenne Pepper
  • FOR THE CHICKEN:
  • 1 whole Yellow Onion, Chopped
  • 3 cloves Garlic, Minced
  • 2 pounds Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast
  • 8 cups Water Or Chicken Stock
  • 3 whole Dried Guajillo Peppers
  • FOR THE NACHOS:
  • 4 whole Avocados, Peeled And Pitted
  • 2 Tablespoons Pico De Gallo
  • 1 can (15 Oz. Size) Black Beans, Drained
  • 1 bag (12 Oz. Size) Tortilla Chips
  • 8 ounces, weight Grated Cheese
  • 8 ounces, fluid Sour Cream
  • 8 ounces, weight Mango Salsa

Preparation

Combine the spices in a bowl.

Add chopped onions, garlic, chicken, seasonings, stock/water and guajillo peppers in a crockpot. Put the lid on and cook for 4-6 hours on low.

When the chicken is ready preheat the oven to 350 F. Mash up the avocado and mix in the pico de gallo to do a quick guacamole! Heat the canned black beans

Take the chicken out of the crockpot and shred with a fork. It should fall apart with no resistance.

On a cooking sheet, spread a layer of chips, then sprinkle with the black beans then the chicken. Cover it all with shredded cheese and place in the oven.

Cook in the oven for about 15-20 minutes, then remove it from the oven. Serve with guacamole, sour cream and salsa. I used some mango salsa. Enjoy!
