~ cheesy chicken nacho's supreme ~ cassie's way
This is my rendition of an appetizer we had when we took our daughter out for her birthday. Hubby suggested I try my hand at them. Well, I'm here to tell you a few days later I made my own and they were awesome! I layered mine, so there would be goodies with every bite. The restaurant didn't and when you reached the bottom of the plate all that was left is chips. My family was ever so pleased and I'll be making them again for New Years! I used my own fresh guacamole which I'll include the link to my recipe. It knocked them out of the ballpark. Enjoy!

How To Make ~ cheesy chicken nacho's supreme ~ cassie's way

Step 1In a large skillet over medium heat - add a small amount of oil and once hot add chicken, separating as it cooks. Once no pink remains - stir in the taco seasoning and water. Simmer for 12 - 15 minutes. If becomes too thick, add a little more water. Once chicken is good and tender, remove from heat and set aside.
