SLOW COOKER RANCH CHICKEN NACHOS



Slow Cooker Ranch Chicken Nachos image

I have a love/hate relationship with nachos. The love part? How can one not appreciate a giant platter of crunchy carbs topped with all the shredded meats and all the melted cheeses and spicy what nots and more crunchy do dads and cool, creamy sauces and salsas? It's a no-brainer. The hate part? My unruly lack of self control when it comes to all the things. This version is blanketed with a world of ranchy shredded chicken and green bell peppers, so there's just no way to prepare you or your mouth for what's about to happen.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 pound boneless skinless chicken thighs
1 green bell pepper, sliced
One 1-ounce packet (about 3 tablespoons) dried ranch dressing seasoning
1/3 cup chicken stock
1 bag tortilla chips (blue, yellow, whatever)
1 cup shredded Cheddar (about 4 ounces)
1/2 cup crumbled queso fresco
1/4 small red onion, thinly sliced (about 1/4 cup)
1 jalapeno, thinly sliced
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves
2 scallions, thinly sliced
Salsa and ranch dressing, for serving, optional

Provided by Blair Lonergan

Categories     Dinner

Time 6h10m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (1 ounce) envelope taco seasoning
2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or chicken thighs)
1 (16 ounce) jar of salsa
8 ounces tortilla chips (or more, as needed)
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (or more, as needed)
Additional toppings: sliced black olives, sliced green onions, guacamole, avocado, sour cream, salsa, or jalapeno peppers

EMERIL'S SHREDDED CHICKEN NACHOS



Emeril's Shredded Chicken Nachos image

Every once in a great while, Emeril impresses me with a dish. This was one of them. This one looked SO incredibly good and rich. The cheese sauce I think was what got to me. I just can't get enough of a good cheese sauce. There are a ton of ingredients, but don't let that keep you from fixing these up. It does make quite a bit, but they'll probably go fast. Be sure to set around some salsa or pico, sour cream, jalapeños, and watch 'em disappear! NOTE: I condensed the directions down and left out the Pico recipe included. I can't eat pico, but feel free to use your favorite recipe or your favorite salsa.

2 cups milk
1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies, drained
2 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves, for garnishing
