It wouldnāt be football season without a big honking tray of nachos. So, to honour the weeks of lazy football Sundays ahead of us, I bring you Loaded BBQ Chicken Nachos. Piled high with cheddar, scallions, red onion, tomato, black olives, jalapeno, and BBQ chicken, this game-day snack is a touchdown.
Youāll spend most of your time waiting for the oven to reach the 375-degree Fahrenheit temperature and prepping all of the āextras.ā There is no right or wrong way to assemble these loaded BBQ chicken nachos, but I recommend layering the chips, so every bite has a little something-something on them.
Youāll love this crowd-friendly snack thatās perfect for any party or lazy afternoon.
