    Ingredients

    • FOR THE SPICES:

    • 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!
